This week all the children have made me incredibly proud! They have all been working so hard and other teachers have commented on how focused and hard working they are.
We had our class mass on Wednesday. The children took part in the mass by reading the gospel and psalm beautifully! The children’s behaviour was absolutely incredible and their responses to Father were loud and clear. Miss Haggerty, Father Jim and other parishioners commented to me about how amazing all the children were. Well done Year 4 I am so proud of each and every one of you!
Maths – This week we have been focusing on fractions. We have been simplifying fractions, counting on in fractions and finding the decimal equivalent for fractions.
English – We have been exploring the similarities and differences of two poems. We have also been identifying and using adverbs.
Science – In Science we have been looking at invertebrates and the different characteristics they have.
History – This week we have been looking at Viking warriors. We explored what armour and weapons they used and their beliefs. We then created our own Viking shield.
RE – We have been recalling the different stories from the Bible about trust. We then looked at the question ‘Do all believers find it hard to trust in God?’ and used examples from the Bible stories to help us answer it.
