Learning at home

Whilst your child is learning from home due to Lockdown, there will be a daily Teams meeting with your child’s class teacher and teaching assistant. You have previously been given information on how to access this. The morning meeting will commence at 9:10am to outline the day and provide any clarifications with learning. The afternoon meeting will be at 2:10pm to discuss the day and provide support with any misconceptions.

We are also providing weekly ‘drop in’ sessions to support your child’s learning whilst at home. These sessions will happen over Teams on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, 11:00-11:30am. If your child needs additional support, further clarifications or explanations of concepts; they can access Teams at the given times to speak to a year 4 teacher.

There will be daily English and maths lessons which will be uploaded to this section of our Year 4 website each week. We have also included Topic, RE, PE and Science lessons so children are able to access the foundation subjects of our curriculum. A minimum of 6 pieces of work must be returned each week to your class teacher via our year 4 email. Miss Hickey and Miss Lillington will provide expectations for quantity and quality and feedback for next steps will be given.

If you would like any further support or guidance with the activities, or how else best to support your child, please contact us via email: year_4@holytrinity.leeds.sch.uk and we will get back to you with ideas as soon as possible.

Many thanks,

Miss Hickey and Miss Lillington

Suggested timetable for home learning

We appreciate home learning is different for everyone depending on your family and work circumstances at the moment. Any work you can do is going to be beneficial for you children – we would prioritise reading and number facts. We have put together a proposed timetable, so if you have children in different year groups and are wanting to provide some structure to your day, you can use it for guidance. However, please do regard it as guidance and do what works for you.

Additional timetable for home learning in Year 4

We have included a more thorough timetable below which might help you and your child with home learning. It provides detail about additional Phonics and Spellings practice and also provides detail for afternoon learning.

English

Reading Comprehension

For additional reading resources, there are some free ebooks on Oxford Owl – you will need to register but it is free to do so https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/for-home/find-a-book/library-page/ which follow the same levels as the books we use in school and they have an audio option that will read each page aloud.

Topic

PSHE

RE

 

Music

We have been provided with a series of lessons from ArfForms to support you with music whilst learning from home. Take a look at the links below:

PE

There are lots of great ideas across the internet to keep kids active at home and we have provided links to these below such as Joe Wicks workouts and Cosmic Yoga. However, these are not physical education lessons, and we all know the importance of physical education to a child’s development and self-confidence. Therefore we will provide 2 links to Physical Education lessons here. Learning and practicing the fundamental skills of agility, balance, coordination and strength are so important.
The department for education have recommended the Yorkshire Sport Foundation #ThisisPE campaign https://bit.ly/ThisIsPE_YouTube

Supporting Collective Worship at home

Whilst we are away from school, we wanted to make sure our pupils and families still have the opportunity to take part and worship together. There will be a weekly video from Mrs Swann, a member of our Holy Trinity Church family and additional links which can be used to support Collective Worship at home.
