Mr Mayhew
Welcome to Blue Class – Year 4
We are Blue Class!
Did you know that Blue Class is full of amazing learners?
In Blue class we know that every opportunity is a learning opportunity. We are keen, eager and very inquisitive. We love to share our knowledge and skills as well as enjoy asking questions to find out more about things we are introduced to.
Blue Class is always full of fun and laughter because we love performing our own songs and poems and telling clever jokes!
We also know that sharing is caring and being kind and thoughtful is essential!
We have been learning to play the guitar since September and have already had three amazing concerts! Science lessons have been full of exciting experiments that helped us become mini scientists in Electricity, States of Matter and Sound.
Fun packed trips have been booked for us to go on and we cannot wait!
We like to take on challenges and always try to improve ourselves in whatever we do. We have enjoyed being in Year 4 so far and we look forward to what is in plan for us for the remaining of the term.
“Children in Blue Class are like sponges because we like to absorb knowledge!”
“Maths lessons are fun, sometimes tricky but we never give up.”
“We are extraordinary and remarkable because we are perfect in our own way.”

Spring Overview Letter: View Here
Friday Blended Learning work can be accessed via Google Classroom. Children should log on and submit any assignments by the following Wednesday.
In the event of a school closure children will find all of their learning on Google Classroom. Teachers will post pre-recorded lessons, set daily tasks and provide daily feedback and small group interventions as needed.
At West Green we use the Accelerated Reader programme which helps our students read appropriately levelled books independently at home. Pupils take a STAR test which gives them a reading age and level – they then chose an appropriate book from the library. Once they have read it, they take an online quiz based on the book to check their understanding. This process accelerates the pupils reading skills – FANTASTIC!
Pupils would usually quiz at school, but because of our bubble system, it is more difficult for children to access the computer room at the moment. Pupils, therefore, must quiz at home using this special portal link: Quiz Here!
Mymaths is a great homework tool for children to consolidate what they have learnt in their lessons and to practice other maths skills in a fun and interactive way.
To access MyMaths follow the link and click on login MyMaths at WG
Purple Mash is a fantastic tool to help children to not only practice their computing skills but also their maths and English skills. Children can access a wide range of activities to support their learning. It is fun and educational!

We are using the Oak Academy to support our learners who are having to isolate while the rest of their class remains in school.
Each lesson is an hour-long and delivered by a teacher, with a pre-recorded video as well as quizzes, worksheets and creative activities. It’s all easy to use, there’s no login or password, you can access the lessons on any device, and pupils only need materials they can find at home.
Once you’ve notified the school of the required isolation period you will receive an email from SLT telling you which units will best support a continuation of your child’s learning.
The Oak Academy can be accessed using this link – Oak Academy
As always we are here to help! If you need support logging in to any of the online learning hubs please get in touch with us by calling the school or emailing us at: admin@westgreen.haringey.sch.uk
