Term 4 – Stayin’ Alive!

This term is very intense… we explore sustainability.

We look at what sustainability means. How we are effecting our planet and what we can do as a school to help improve the environment around us.

Our aim is to write to Sir David Attenborough and Steve Backshaw about how (at St Pauls) we are going to make our school more sustainable and better for the environment. We will be doing lots of cross-curricular learning and we will be taking part in a beach clean as well as producing recycled art sculptures (we may be asking you to raid your recycling bins for this activity).

Please read our Curriculum newsletter for what we will be learning in our individual lessons this term and continue to check Dojo for regular spelling updates and events that may occur this term.

A few reminders,

• By the end of Year 4, all children are expected to know their times tables up to 12 X 12. Please encourage and support them to learn and recite them with confidence.
• Please ensure that your child brings their planner into school every day as it contains useful learning aids to support their learning. We would request that you read with your child 3 times a week and record this in your planner.
• There is also a writing task for your child to complete on a weekly basis in their planners. Please support them in doing this, if you can.
