January 2022

Welcome back Year 4! I have added your Spring Newsletter to this page so that you can have a look at what we are going to be getting up to this term. You should have all received either a small copy of your spellings that will be in the back of your reading racetrack books or have taken a larger copy home for your grown ups. I have also put a link to that document on here as well so that you can check them each week if you like. The ones that are highlighted in yellow are scheduled to be on Spelling Shed during a holiday. This means that you will have extra time to learn these spelling before you come back to school. 

October 2021

In Year 4, we have been looking at how we can 'grow' as people and what we would like to work on in order to do this. This has been put on display in our classroom.

We have also been looking at who we can trust, The children have been working together in partners to discuss a particular situation and seeing whether their friends would trust the person who has offered to help or to not trust them.

September 2021

In Year 4, we are looking at experimenting and creating circuits during our science lessons. The children had great fun using different equipment such as bulbs, buzzers, wires and cells to create full and complete circuits.

Remembrance Day 2021

We had some thoughtful and inspiring conversations on Thursday to mark our Remembrance Day. The 2 minute silence was observed and the children, as expected were excellently behaved. For our english work that day, the children were asked to produce a radio advert to recruit people to help with the War Effort. They had a choice to recruit for the Dig for Victory Campaign, the Air Raid Wardens or the Women's Voluntary Service. I have attached the videos for you to see what the children have been up to.

History - Athenians vs Spartans

For our Ancient Greece area of study, the children have been looking at the similarities and differences between the people of Athens and the people of Sparta. They looked at how each area was Governed, what education was available and what life was like for boys and girls. The below pictures are the children taking part in a freeze frame to show one of the areas that they have been looking into.
