Class Webpage - Year 4

My name is Tom Doyle and I am excited about teaching the children in year 4.

The class will have a variety of opportunities and experiences to make the year as rewarding as possible supported by various members of staff. Mrs Pearson works in the ICT Suite with the class and as a school assistant. Mr Barnett provides the music and the singing for the class.

Dr Johnson our Chair of Governors works every Tuesday to support the teaching, in particular science, music and English.

Mrs Witchell teaches the class on a Tuesday morning in English and P.E.

Mrs Dunbar is our school assistant and I try to be there as well if I can!

Topics covered this year will include:

Why did Henry VIII marry 6 times? I've often wondered that myself!

What life was like for children in WWII.

We will find out about village settlers, and improving our environment. Electricity, habitats, friction, solids and liquids, moving and growing.

The Children will be taught R.E following the 'Here I Am' syllabus.

Maths and English is the key to success at school and I will place a great emphasis on learning multiplication tables and weekly spelling tests.

Hearing your child read is also crucial at this age.

I want the children to enjoy being at school and will organise events to make their learning as much fun as possible. This will include visitors to school and trips out including our residential trip to Charterhouse in May.

Football club is available to all children on Monday after school.

Finally if you have any concerns or worries I'm always happy to speak to you (I'm the teacher with the mug of tea in his hand!).
