Our Learning
Red Nose Day 2023!
Did you know that children should measure 135cm or more to travel without a car seat? Year 4 have checked their heights this week after a visit from our local Road Safety Officer.

Class Celebration - thank you to everyone who came to our class celebration. We loved sharing our learning with you ☺️
Computing - Safer Internet Day - this week in computing we discussed what the internet is useful for and also how to stay safe online 💻🔐
Young Voices - what an absolutely incredible experience! Singing with Heather Small, the beatboxers and dancing with our friends were just some of the highlights. Please click the link below to see videos.
Reading - in reading we have been analysing a poem called ‘The Worst Team’ which is about a group of children who love football, but are not great at winning. We discussed how they don’t mind because they have lots of fun! With the use of role play, we pretended we were part of the team and we had just lost yet another game! We showed that we didn’t mind because we still had fun with our teammates.
French - in this lesson, we were welcomed to the Louvre Museum. We focused on the ée sound ay and discussed the words l’entrée (the entrance) and le musée (the museum). We used the idea of cognates and near cognates to help us discover other vocabulary around the museum. 🇫🇷
Music - we are super excited for Young Voices next week! 🎵🎶
History - our history topic this term is all about invading and settling in Britain. Within this particular lesson, we identified the features of Anglo-Saxon houses and then had a go ourselves at making wattle and daub! 🪵🌾
PE - our PE topics this term are circuit training and dance. This week, we created our own fitness records and over the next 6 weeks we will track our progress.
50 Things - we had so much fun at the pantomime with a lovely hot chocolate pit stop on the way! 🎄🍫☕️✨
Christmas Jumper Day 🎅🏼⛄️
Decorating the tree 🎄
Science - investigating the impact of different drinks on our teeth. 🦷
Geography - we have just started our new topic all about rivers! We have been discussing the journey that a river takes. 🌧💦🌊
Science - in science we have been learning about the digestive system and the types of teeth and their functions. 🦷
PSHE - within PSHE, we have discussed emotions and how we can have different feelings throughout a day. We talked about how we can manage our feelings and what to do if we are feeling sad.
Children in Need Day
PSHE - Anti-Bullying Week - in year 4 this week, we have been discussing bullying and how to help if we think someone is being bullied. We wore odd socks to show that it is OK to be different and looked at different scenarios, considering how we would feel in these situations and what we could do to help.
Remembrance - this week we have reflected and spent time remembering the people who have died or fought in wars around the world.
RE - this term we have been learning all about Hindus and their beliefs.
Harvest Festival
We had a brilliant time at the Halloween Party! What a way to end the first term 👻🎃🦇
Class Celebration Event - thank you so much to everybody who attended our class celebration event! We had so much fun showing you our learning in Y4 so far.
Diversity Week - we have had lots of discussions this week relating to challenging stereotypes, race, different families and equality and equity.
Computing - our unit in computing this term is collaborative learning where we need to use lots of teamwork skills and communication. We discovered, when creating monsters, the importance of communication when working on a task together. Now we are applying these skills to create joint documents with our own rules! 💻
Writing - we have just started our new unit on persuasive writing. So far, we have focused on the features and in the next few weeks we will create our own radio adverts.
Maths - our topic in maths this term is place value, where we have been learning about rounding, representing numbers, Roman numerals and negative numbers. We enjoy to use concrete resources to represent our learning.
RE - we were super lucky to have the amazing Sunita teaching us all about the Hindu Festival Diwali and also some traditional dancing!
Reading - our class book this term is ‘An Alien in the Jam Factory’. We have had some brilliant class discussions predicting what might happen and considering how the vocabulary used makes us feel a certain way. We enjoy reading our own books too and sharing book recommendations with our friends! 📚
What a brilliant first week in Year 4!
