Welcome to year 4!
In year four this year, your children will be supported by myself (Mrs Bryan), and Mrs Sandiford. We are both extremely excited to be teaching your child again and cannot wait for another fun packed year of learning.
Autumn 2 2023
Welcome back!
We are looking forward to a busy half term including the Mela and our class trip to Portland Basin.
In English, year 4 are first looking at descriptive language and how to use it in a setting description. After that they will be writing a non-chronological report. In Maths we will be learning about area and multiplication. Our science topic is states of matter and our lessons will include investigations and experiments. This half term we are studying History. We will be thinking about children’s lives, finding out what has changed and making comparisons between historical periods. In Art we are learning about colour theory and looking at how light and dark affects our painting. Our D.T. project is to make a slingshot car. In R.E. we will be thinking about why some people think life is a journey. In our computing lessons we will learn how to make electronic music and effectively search on the internet. Our French topic is la familie and in music we will be practising our singing skills ready for the Christmas performance.
This half term our P.E. topic is dance, lessons are on Thursday. Children should come to school in their P.E. kit - a light blue t-shirt, navy or black bottoms and pumps or trainers. On Forest School days children need to come to school in full uniform and bring suitable clothes to change into. As the weather is getting colder we recommend lots of layers to keep your child warm.
