What a lovely thing it was this morning, to be greeted by so much colour!  So vibrant and fun.  Well done everyone.

We have had a great week, starting off with our first session with Mike and our club at lunchtime.  He was very impressed with you all and looking forward to what next weeks group will get up to.  I love your shelters.  They look very cosy and warm.  You were also all really brave for all of the nurses this afternoon and your flu spray.  Well done.

We have all been loving our new book in class and you have really impressed everyone with your enthusiasm and imaginations.  We were also brilliant at our maths, all about perimeter and area this week, not to mention getting "our" trophy back from Mr C for Mathletics!  He has challenged us though!  Will we be able to keep it for another week?  Unheard of, so I'm told.

So on to homework for the week, you have all written it into your planners.  You have the usual - Mathletics, TT Rockstars, Spelling shed (I wonder if we can have a lead speller in our class?), reading (see if you can get a stamp on our reading chart), spellings (see below) and an activity on Teams.

Have a fun weekend, keep safe and keep smiling.  Thank you for all of your hard work this week.  I wonder what next week will bring?

Love The Year 4 Team

Well, three days into the week and so many fantastic things to say! 

The first half of our class took part in Bushcraft on Monday afternoon and had great fun making mini dens. Mike and Miss Hewitt said you all did a great job, listened well and worked collaboratively in small teams - well done to you all.

                                                                                       

We all ran our socks off on Tuesday (I say all but I had the VERY important job of holding the clipboard so couldn't join in!). All of the children ran five laps of a cross country course on our school field and I am so proud of them all for trying their best. 

Today we have discussed the importance and relevance of poppies on remembrance day. Miss Hewitt (our history expert) told us all lots of interesting facts and we spent the morning using oil pastels and paint to create some amazing pieces of art. 

  

I'm sure you'll agree, they're wonderful pieces of work! 

We have also had lots of 'active maths' sessions this week. Some children have been using trundle wheels to find the perimeter of the playground, some have played team games to find the perimeter of rectangles and everyone has played lots of times-tables games. 

Your homework is ready for you on Mathletics. Use your knowledge of measurement and perimeter to answer this week's assignments. 

Don't forget to try and get your first sticker on our reading chart by getting three of more signatures in your planner! 

Enjoy the rest of your week and I'll see you all on Monday.

Love from Mrs K xx

Hi there everyone.  We have had a great week back.  I hope you all had a good holiday and managed to enjoy some fresh air despite the rain!

We have been busy this week with all sort of things.  We have been into our woods, played volleyball with a coach and worked on our times tables.  We have also begun looking at the types of Art we find on Album covers.  Here is an example of one of the albums we looked at.  Can you tell which album it comes from?

Absolutely fabulous!

Adventures in school begin this week.  I know that the children will have let you know about Mike coming into school to do some bush craft work with our class.  We are very lucky!

Well done with your spellings last week.  Don't forget to work on your new spellings and get on to Mathletics.  We need that trophy back from Mr C!  TT Rockstars and Spelling shed are also up and running for you to get on.  I wonder if we will have the Spelling Shed's top speller this week.

Have a great weekend and keep safe.

I can't quite believe that we have been back a week already! Well done to you all for coming into school with smiley faces, ready to learn. 

We have made a start on our new topic, Adventures, and who knows where it will take us over the next few weeks! 

As we have been learning about the properties of 2D shapes this week, I have assigned some tasks on Mathletics for you to have a go at. I'm really pleased to see how much work you have been doing on there - keep it up and let's see if we can keep hold of the trophy! 

I'll see you all on Monday.

Good evening One and All,

I would like to echo Mrs Kendal's thought from yesterday!  We have been such a busy bunch an have covered so much. We are all really proud of how you have stepped back into school life and tackled everything head on.  What a great bunch you are!

Next half term we have lots of exciting things happening.  Adventures are going to be taking place.  I will leave your imaginations to run a little wild for now and not give anything away.  If you fancy a little job, you could spend a little time thinking what the adventures might be and you could write, draw or even make a PowerPoint about what adventures they might be!  We will fill you in after half term.  Don't forget TT Rockstars, Spelling Shed and Mathletics too, if you fancy stopping Year 6 getting the trophy back!

I would also like to let you know that we now have our very own balloon in the FONS Virtual Balloon race.

Here is the link to follow our balloon and the best of luck.  Up, up and away!!

I will leave it there for now, don't forget to rest up and have some lovely adventures.  We are planning lots of autumn walks with the dogs.  We are hoping to collect lots of conkers and blow off a few cobwebs.  

Happy holidays, keep smiling and keep safe.

Love Miss Watkins and the rest of the team
