Year 4 Reading Passport
20 BOOKS TO READ
Over the summer, each class teacher has been compiling a list of 20 books to read by the end of the year. These books are a mix of different texts, authors and text types. These can be read by the children, or read to them depending on your child's reading stage.
Children will be coming home with their own reading passport. This will show the 20 books for your child to read by the end of their class year. Over the year, the children will have the opportunity to read these books at home, and then you can sign the passport when the books have been read at home. All of the books that are on the passport are available from each class reading area, though you may have some copies at home.
After a book has been read and signed by an adult, a stamp or a sticker will be added to the passport in class to show that that book has been read. Once your child has read all of their books for the year, they will receive a certificate, a prize and their name will go onto our school Wall of Fame display.
We hope that this will help to encourage the children of St Joseph's to develop their love of reading for pleasure, and to help them to find new authors, text types and books that will spark their interest.
Happy Reading!

STEP UP TO THE PLATE - 9.12.22
Genesis 1:25-28
God said, “Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
We responded to the word by considering ways we can make a difference to our world and our global food system. We thought of ways we could offer support and raise awareness.
Here is Year 4 ‘stepping up to the plate’
COMPUTING - 8.12.22
Today, year 4 completed their ‘Hour of Code’ task.
We went onto code.org to access a Star Wars themed program. We had to follow the algorithm carefully to complete the task. However, there were bugs along the way, and we had to carefully correct them.
The children had a wonderful time coding, and the site has lots of free coding activities to complete at home too!
