Happy half term to you all!
I'm so sorry that I didn't get chance to see you all today but I can't wait to catch up and hear about all of the wonderful things you've been doing.
Well done for a super start to the year. I hope you have enjoyed our first topic, Wild - I certainly have. We have had great fun finding out about all of the minibeasts living in our woodland, designing our own creatures and bird watching.
You have been very creative (and messy) making divas, bird feeders and art using the natural materials we found.
We read the book The Lorax and produced some lovely writing and have worked our socks off in Maths!
Thank you to all of the Mums and Dads for taking the time to speak to us at parents' evening albeit in a virtual world! It was lovely to meet some of you for the first time and, of course, see some familiar faces.
I hope that you all have a wonderful week; take time to relax and do the things that you enjoy. You are all amazing!
See you very soon.

We learnt all about animals and their habitats in Science and in Geography we have been learning about journeys and settlements.
In Art we have molded hearts out of clay. We are hoping to paint them next week and we have made some bookmarks.

9th October 2020
As October 10th is World Mental Health Day, throughout the today, every year group has learnt about what mental health is, discussed this topic and completed different activities based upon this. Why not ask your child/ren about what they have learned today?
Young Minds is a charity that is leading the fight for a future where all young minds are supported and empowered, whatever the challenges. They are there to make sure young minds get the best possible mental health support and have the resilience to overcome life’s difficulties.

Well, it has been another fantastic week in Year 4. We have busy with all sorts of jobs and learning lots of new things. We have been learning the days of the week in French, settlements and animals, to name just a few things. Our bunting is coming along beautifully and we can't wait to see it up on the windows. Your artistic skills have really impressed us.
Please can we remind you to have a go at logging on to Microsoft Teams. We have recapped how to log on with the children so they should be able to work it out. Fingers crossed.
Homework this week is to keep going on Ed Shed, TT Rockstars and Mathletics. Let's see if we can have a few more bronze certificates next week. I would also like you to pick a times table that you are a little unsure of (your choice), and have a go at learning it for next week. You could do this by writing it down, shouting it out, singing it or whatever works for you.
Have a lovely, safe weekend and we will see you all safe and well next week.
Love the Year 4 Team

We've had a busy start to the week in Class 4!
We have explored our woodland area and collected lots of invertebrates. We then brought them into the classroom where we used classification keys to identify them. Mrs Mitchell had lots of fun emptying out all of the pots - especially the ones with slugs in!
We've made a start on some animal projects using the computers and also made some Gaudi inspired animal pictures for our classroom display.
Everyone has worked really hard on their assessments this week too - I am so proud of you all!
Don't forget this week's homework is available on Mathletics and is due on Monday. Miss Watkins has put an activity on Teams for everyone to access - please let us know if you have any problems with this.
Keep smiling everyone!
Love from Mrs Kendal and the year 4 team xx
