Welcome to Marie Curie Class – Year 4
In Year 4, Marie Curie Class is taught by Miss Manning and supported by Miss Cranie.
Year 4 is an exciting year as we move into the second year of Key Stage Two. Children become more independent, learn more complex methods, and maintain their curiosity about the world. The Multiplication Timestable Check at the end of year 4 means there is a strong focus on learning tables, which will need lots of practise at home. We use the Times Table Rockstars programme as a fun and engaging way to help develop multiplication fluency.
We believe that a love of learning is key to a successful education and this is supported by our thematic approach (as showcased by our half-termly topics). Using these themes, we make cross-curricular links where possible with the belief that this deepens the child’s understanding of the topic, helps them make connections and encourages them to recognise the relevance of their learning.
