As I write this blog, I cannot believe we are nearing the end of our time in Year 4. The children have impressed me throughout the year and in this difficult time they have continued to develop in to mature young people.
In Maths this week, the children have been working on their multiplication and division skills by multiplying and dividing 2 and 3 digit numbers by a 1 digit number. The children worked really hard on this! Super work!
In English, we were consolidating our spelling, punctuation and grammar learning from throughout the year. The children were fantastic, especially when it came to their spelling! Well done Year 4.
Next week, we will be starting our final Talk 4 Writing booklet ‘The Impossibly Possible Bookshop’.
Our curriculum focus was on Science. The children were exploring the particle structure of solids, liquids and gases. Once they had watched the video clip and completed the worksheet the children played a ‘particle game’ where they had to use the clues to identify whether it was a solid, liquid or gas. Here are a few pictures of the children having fun, playing their game.
The children also took part in their Multiplication Check. First, they completed their warm up game then, they completed their test. The children’s scores were brilliant and certainly reflected the hard work and effort the children have put into their times table knowledge and fluency this year.
On Monday it is the Feast of Saint Peter and Saint Paul. Over the weekend, Father Jim will be celebrating this Feast with a Mass which you can watch on the church website.
Some children, have told me that they are finding it a little tricky to organise their home learning therefore I have created a home learning timetable to help the children if they feel they need it.
Additional home learning resources;
Learning Project - This week the focus is Food. Some other classes are on different learning project themes if you have a child who is in another year group and the children would rather do a different project to the one I have set then that is fine.
Geography workbook - This week the focus is Global Knowledge
