We had another amazing week! Thanks to all the children who worked incredibly hard and produced high-quality work! In Literacy, we researched by retrieving information from a text about Africa and its amazing countries. Later, we write a non-chronological report about them. The whole class worked really hard to include a variety of punctuation and grammar tools to enhance their writing. In Maths, we continued with the learning of place value and now calculating numbers over 10, 000. It was a delight to see the majority of the children taking up ‘going deeper’ challenges! We had a sweet Science this ...
What a fantastic jam-packed week! We had loads going on in Year 4. This week we looked at the timeline of different civilizations and what time ancient Egyptians existed. We will mainly be focusing on what we have learned from the achievements of previous civilizations. In Maths, we learned numbers to ten thousand and used a number line to consolidate our number sense. We classified many different objects into different states of matter in Science, focusing specifically on gases. In Literacy, we worked really hard to use a variety of conjunctions in informal writing where we informed our readers about ...
What a fantastic first full week back! Well done Year 4. It has been fantastic to see how well you performed in all your lessons. In Literacy, we discussed and wrote the recounts of our holidays. In Maths, we revisited our place value to thousands. We had an exciting Science afternoon where we categorised a number of different objects into solids and liquids. We indulged in a productive discussion to extend our knowledge about ‘states of matter’ which is our new science topic as well. We started our RE unit as well which is all about ‘beliefs and practices’ in ...

We are all looking forward to coming back in September, all fresh and all ready to learn so much more. Thank you Year 4 for giving me this fabulous year which is full of memories. They ...
What a busy week! Year 4 worked really hard this week to enhance their learning in a number of subjects. In Literacy, we wrote a Haiku poem about the relationship between our sibling characters. This linked directly with our PSHE topic which is also about relationships. We discussed the main causes of jealousy and how one can overcome it. In Maths, we are feeling confident in dealing with money. In Science, we worked hard to learn how to classify. It is time for us to create our own classification keys based on the different characteristics of living things. The highlight ...
