Year 4

Welcome to Year 4's page all about the fantastic things that we are doing in 4G and 4C!

We have lots of exciting things happening this half term and will share them with you here.   

Reminders

 Just a few reminders for the week:

PE is on a Tuesday afternoon - children to come to school in their PE kit. Please make sure they are wearing the correct kit. Earrings need to be removed by the child or before school, we are not allowed to help with this.

 

Homework has been set on edshed. There is a maths quiz and spelling games set to be completed every week. Children should know their logins and these have been sent home.

Please also make sure to be logging on to TT Rockstars. Playing the garage game will help you to learn your times tables.  This is a valuable tool to help the children learn their times tables as well as prepare them for the Multiplication Tables Check they will be taking in June. The soundcheck game mimics the real test.

Pick of the Week
What have we been learning about this week?

This week we are beginning to learn about Europe. We are going to be using this in our literacy lessons as well as geography lessons. We will be thinking about the sort of information people would want to know about a country and then completing some research to teach the rest of the class about our chosen country. 

In maths we are continuing to think about decimals (tenths and hundredths) as well as thinking about what happens to a number when it is divided by 10 or 100.

In Science we are going to be completing  some data collection about the plants and wildlife in our local area. 


Next week (20.04.2026)

In literacy we will be using our research to write up a non-chronological report about our European country. We will be using this report to teach the rest of the class about the country so that everyone has some knowledge about the different countries that make up the continent of Europe. In Maths we will be continuing to think about decimals. We will be learning how they make up a whole as well as comparing them.

Every Thursday during Autumn term one of the Year 4 classes visited Ghost Woods to experience Forest School in the Autumn term. We walk there and get the chance to explore and have the freedom to choose our activities. The swing is a popular activity as is building a mud kitchen and making a range of items out of wood.
