Welcome to Year 4!

This week so far: 

English: This week our students have analysed an inspiring example text looking for key grammatical features and are now excitedly planning their own memoirs. This engaging journey fosters creativity and critical thinking, making English not just a subject, but a pathway to self-expression and storytelling.

Maths: In math we have continued the topic of decimals looking at dividing whole numbers by 10 and also 100. Students have also completed there end of term assessments in Math.

Science: This week students explored the fascinating world of muscles! We looked at how our muscles work when we bend our arm, and discussed how when one muscle contracts another relaxes. We also discussed the importance of warming up our muscles prior to physical exertion.

RE: In our Year 4 RE lesson, we explored the idea that sometimes good things can emerge from sad events. We discussed why Christians believe something positive came from Jesus’ death, reflecting on themes of hope and renewal. The children engaged thoughtfully, sharing their insights and connecting with these important concepts.

DT: In this weeks Design Technology lesson, our Year 4 students enthusiastically crafted frames for their vehicles. They constructed circuits to make them move and began cutting out the body of cardboard for their safari trucks. It was wonderful to see their creativity and problem-solving skills in action!

PE: Our PE lessons this week are volleyball and dance
