What a fantastic week we have had!

We have been so busy learning all about Alexander Graham Bell, Isambard Kingdom Brunel and George Stephenson.  They were amazing people who have invented things that made such a great impact on our loves.

We have also been working again on our times tables and really impressing us with those.  Our winning streak is over and Class 3 have been working hard to get the Mathletics trophy.  Many congratulations to them.

You all turned into wonderful musicians today and ended the week with a chorus of amazing sounds.  We learnt about crotchets, rests and quavers in music and wrote some of our own compositions.  Amazing work.  Here are a few photos of your scores.

We have lots to look forward to next week, especially our trip to the Sport Barn.  Have a restful weekend and we shall see you all next week.

Another beautiful, sunny week! A big well done to all of our little hay-fever sufferers - you have made it through a tough few days with lots of sneezing, runny noses and sore eyes.

In PSHE on Monday, we thought about our environment and who is responsible for taking care of it. We also listed lots of little changes we can make to help take care of the world around us. We made some super enviro-meters.

Our book, The Invention of Hugo Cabret, is getting interesting now. We spent one of our lessons getting into character and creating freeze-frames from the story.

    

  

Miss Monday has been working with a small group of children to design and build their own moving cars. The children have decided to use wind power and have finished making their models. Next week they will put them to the test to see if they work.  Here are some of the designs and their vehicles.

  

 

  

We have been learning a little about the Railways in History and how it impacted on our country and the world when it was invented and we drew some wonderfully detailed images of factories.  

It has been another busy and fun week in Class 4.

Well done everyone.

Welcome back to the final half term of the year (I can't quite believe we have arrived here so quickly!) and what a wonderful, sunny start we have had.

On Monday, we threw ourselves into a very messy but fun science investigation. We recreated the digestive system - I'll leave the final outcome up to your imagination! 

 

There were lots of excited faces as well as a few disgusted ones during this lesson! 

In PE, our warm-up involved drawing our own hopscotch games and testing them all out - great for the calf muscles (as I discovered later that evening!)   The children also had great fun with their cricketing skills.  Super bowling Year 4!

 

We have also started reading our new book, The Invention of Hugo Cabret. It is a wonderful book and links perfectly to our Industrial Revolution topic. 

The children have been really busy outside in the garden again, with Mrs Pearce.  She really appreciates all of the children's hard work.

Well done Class 4!

End of the term! 28th May 2021

Sorry for the slightly delayed blog.

What a wonderful half term.  It has been fabulous to hear all of your voices back in the classroom for a full half term.  

We ended on a bang - literally - with our music lessons.  You all became composers and musicians.  The sound coming from our classroom and the glockenspiels was far more delicate than I expected so very well done.

We have also been learning some French this week and you all helped to create a wonderful display of words in French.  Tres Bien!

Next half term is going to be full of excitement and fun hopefully.  We also hope that it will be full of sunshine and smiles.

Have a great half term, rest well and we will look forward to seeing you all next week.

PS We will be checking in on our Mummies too!

Well we all wish that the weather would brighten up and become a little dryer and warmer.  Fingers crossed for next week.

We are well on our way with our Canopic jars, but this might have to run into next half term, which I am sure the children will not mind at all.

We have been really busy this week with our maths and you are all impressing us with your times tables. These are coming on a real treat.  Don't forget to keep having a go at those tricky ones.  You are also impressing us with your Mathletics.  We have kept hold of the trophy for the 4th week in a row.  I wonder if we could wow Mr C and the rest of the school and have everyone one in the class getting a Bronze for after half term.  How great would that be!

The children have also been learning all about working out the area of shapes too.  See if they can show you how to do it!

Have a wonderful weekend and do not forget that it is a short week next week and you get the Friday off!

Have fun and keep safe
