Year 4 homework for over the half term holidays
No formal homework as such over the holidays but it would be really good if you could focus on your times tables and read a good book ready to quiz when you return
I have handed out some times tables tests that we do in class where you could ask someone to time you and then mark them together (as we do in class)
I will not be collecting these in to mark - it is for you to use them to help you. You also have the songs below if there are still some you are shaky on. Of course, you can work on TTrockstars to increase your rock star status and will set you some ‘Beat the teacher’ challenges on Rockslam.

Over the holidays, it is my greatest wish that we turn our heatmaps green if we have not already done so.
We have learned all common multiplication facts and so many of you know them instantly. One thing that has really helped us to learn them is the times tables songs we have learned along the way. We decided as a class to collate these into a video so you can practise our songs at home - especially those of you still struggling to remember those key facts.
Everybody - please practise your TT rockstars every day over Easter - and practise singing along to these songs with your class friends to help the times tables sink in.

In TT Rockstars, there is a section called SOUNDCHECK. This emulates the official times tables test children will get in June. Please practise soundcheck once a day at least. Also keep working to keep the heatmaps green.
In multi-player mode there is ROCKSLAM. I keep setting a challenge for children to beat me - they like that! This keeps things fresh and exciting. They can also challenge each other.
