Homework 

The main focus of our homework this year is Reading. Year 4 children should be reading for 20 mins, 5 x a week as per our homework policy. 

Reading completed at home should be recorded on Boom Reader. If you are having trouble accessing this, then please see your child's class teacher. 

As Year 4 children will be completing a multiplication test this year, it is also important that they are practising their times tables. This can be done using the links below:
