Project Overview For Parents 2025
This term, Year 4 will be learning about the Stone Age and answering the question, ‘Could you survive the Stone Age?’
We will start by finding out how the Stone Age people survived, look at how we know about the Stone Age and moving on to researching the legacy of this important era in history. In our Geography lessons we will doing a series of lessons on settlements, incorporating our findings from our visit to Cresswell Crags.
Our class novel is the fantastic, ‘Stone Age Boy’ and in Shared Reading we will enjoy the classic tales, ‘The Wild Way Home and ‘Stig of the Dump’
We continue to experience our ‘51 things to do at Southwold’ and will be posting what we get up to on Class Dojo.
As ever we love to see the amazing project homework coming in to class. Please remember that your child must complete 6 Project Homework tasks over the term in addition to their weekly homework. Please ask if your child needs any help or resources.
Please listen to your child read at least 3 times a week and record every time you read with them in their reading diaries so we can keep a record. Every time your child reads at home, they will get a stamp on their bookmark. 30 stamps complete a bookmark and they will get a prize from Mrs Salmeron.
Your child will be given a spelling test every Friday morning, so they need to be practicing these throughout the week. Children receive Dojo’s for full marks in spellings and for returning their homework. Your child is given homework every Friday and this will need to be returned to school by the following Friday, if not before.
PE lessons are every Thursday for Class 4, so please make sure that your child wears their PE to school on this day. Year 4 will continue to swim every Friday in the Spring term.
