Good afternoon,
I hope you have all had a lovely week and are enjoying the sunshine! This week in Year 4 we have been reading our new story, 'Charlie Small in Gorilla City'. The children have been thinking carefully about products they would like to invent in the future to help them. This has been very insightful, the children will be keen to share these ideas with you all. In Maths, we have been learning about coordinates and translations. The children will all be fantastic battleship players now!
Please be aware the work provided as home learning is not compulsory but it is reflective of the learning we have been doing in class and will benefit the children to embed skills they have learnt in class. Half term projects are part of our policy and should be completed and returned by the children.
Next week
English – We will be writing an explanation text.
Maths – We will be learning to formally multiply and divide.
Science - We will be identifying how to make series and parallel circuits.
Art and Design - We will be planning an electrical game.
Art and Design - We will be learning more about Clarice Cliff
Please ensure the children are using TTRS as much as possible to practice their times tables. In Year 4, it is helpful for the children to secure their recall of times tables in preparation for Year 5. The children should also ensure they are practicing their use of homophones/near homophones. There is a list below to support your understanding.
