Caesar Class

Alexander Class

We would like to take this chance to welcome you and your child to Year 4 and to introduce the team. Year 4 is made up of two classes, Caesar and Alexander. The teachers are Mrs Smith and Miss Moseley in Caesar Class and Miss Hamer in Alexander Class. Supporting us in the classroom, we have two wonderful Learning Support Assistants

Over the year, your child will continue to be encouraged to become more independent and to take ownership of their own education. Throughout Year 4, we will focus on helping your child reach the standard required for the end of Lower Key Stage 2 and help them to complete the new Year 4 Multiplication Tables Check. Please support your child by encouraging them to use TT Rock stars on a weekly basis. For those who do not have access to this technology please let us know and we can provide you with paper versions.

At Ivanhoe, we value reading immensely, including reading for pleasure. Reading opens the doors to everything. We have lots of reading incentives at Ivanhoe, including our new book vending machine! We encourage children to read at home at least 3 times each week. 5 or more reads in a week means your child will be entered into the draw for the book vending machine!

Children will take home one of or 'Book Tree' books, alongside their reading book, and can loan them for as long as they wish. Once returned, they can exchange it for a new one. There will be certificates at the end of the year based on the amount of Book Tree books read and shared at home.

We strongly believe that, by working together, we can help ensure that your child will reach their full potential. We communicate most things through Class DOJO and we are always available to answer any questions!

Here’s to a fantastic year!
