Year 4 Homework Expectations

Reading

In Year 4, the children are expected to read their reading book at least three times a week and this is to be recorded in their reading diary. Of course, if you read more than three times this will help to improve your fluency! Children are encouraged to use our online reading resources - Oxford Owl - and they're encouraged to visit the Library where they have many opportunities to enjoy a range of books and genres.

Spelling

Children are encouraged to practice the spellings for their year group and to revisit the spellings from Year 3 to ensure they are known and understood. Although in Year 4 we focus on a selection of words from the LKS2 National Curriculum expectations, the children are also encouraged to look at and begin to learn the spellings for Year 5.

Times Tables

In Years 2 and 3 children were encouraged to learn their x2, x5, x10, x3, x4 and x8 tables. In Year 4, this continues and now includes x6, x9, x7, 11 and x12. The children practice their times tables every day using the Daily 10 method. It is encouraged that the children practice this at home regularly, to help improve their recall of the known times tables. You can access this here:
