Year 4C 2019 - 2020

Mrs Cavill

Autumn 1

Hello to all children, parents and carers and welcome to Year 4! We are all refreshed and raring to start new challenging Year 4 themes and topics. In class, we have already been hearing about the interesting things the children have been doing in the holidays. We hope you all enjoyed the time with your children.

The Year 4 team from 2018-19 has been ramined together comprimising Mrs Cavill, Mr Jolly, Mrs Palmer and Miss Helm.

Back to school, back to work! In English work on fables has started; the children should be able to tell you some morals of these animal based tales.

In Maths we continue to stretch and challenge the children encouraging them to be able to explain HOW they have found an answer not just to write it

Shortly, you will be receiving a letter about our exciting trip to Chester. This supports our learning about the Romans and the impact they had on our lives today. The children will experience life as a Roman in the Dewa museum and even do some marching with a real Roman soldier! More details to follow soon. In Science, we are studying a chemistry unit looking at the States of Matter.

In Religious Education, we will learn about the Faith of our school and that of others. We are starting by remind ourselves how to be “The good Soil". Your children should be able to tell you all about this. After this, we will move on to looking at the beginning of the Big Frieze at Creation and Fall.

Swimming will begin in the first week. Your children may be nervous about this but it is a vital skill to learn. Once they get there the water will be their new best friend. We would just like to urge you to ensure your children’s clothing has names inside, to avoid mix ups. Thank you for your support with this.
