Good morning!
I hope you all had a good day yesterday doing things that made you happy. Here are some of the photos I received of your happy things!
Today will be my last blog for you before the summer holidays (I can't believe we are here already). The last few months have been a mixture of all sorts of emotions - lots of happiness, getting to spend so much time with family but also some sadness, missing out on seeing wider relatives and friends.
Miss Watkins and I are so very proud of you all for adapting so well in these strange times. Whether you have been following the blog and producing some wonderful work or filling your time with other creative, sporty, or imaginative activities - you are all amazing! You will forever be remembered as our little rainbow class and although we have not been able to spend as much time together as we should have, I feel as though I have got to know you all even better by seeing the fantastic things that you have been doing at home.
I am so very excited about seeing most of you again tomorrow but for those who will not be in school, I will be coming to find you in September (like it or not!) just to say hello and have a good old natter.
If there is one thing I have learned during the last few months is to feel grateful for what I have and that is the theme for today.
Have a go at a gratefulness scavenger hunt:
Thank you so much for keeping me going over the past few months; I am very grateful for being able to teach such a wonderful class!
Have a lovely day.

Well, we've made it! The final week of the school year is here and what a year it has been!
A few years ago, one of the children in my class gave me this lovely gift:
It hangs by my bed and it is the first thing I see every morning, reminding me to fill my days with happy things.
Today's task is really simple... do something that makes you happy!
You will all have completely different ideas of what to do to complete this task and I would love to see pictures of your chosen activity.
Have a wonderful day!

Fabulous Friday For Fun Friends!
I hope that you have all had a good week. We cannot wait to see so many of you on Wednesday, it will be such a long awaited treat for us! I also hope that you enjoyed Virtual Sports Day yesterday. There was lots of fun in school and the noise of children giggling and bouncing around was great!
On to today:
English:
How are your tongues? I hope that you can get your mouths around this:
A pale pink proud peacock pompously preened its pretty plumage.
or how about this one:
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
or
She sells sea shells on the sea shore. The shells she sells are seas shells for sure.
What do you notice about them all? Are they easy to say?
I thought that you could have a little bit of fun and have a go at writing your own tongue twisters. If you click on this link there are a few key things that might help you.
You can chose what you write about and you could do more than one. If you like, you could video yourself saying your tongue twister. I can't wait to give them a go!
Maths:
I discovered the Guardians of Mathematica this week (BBC Bitesize). I thought that you lovely lot would enjoy it too, if you have not already discovered it! There are lots of different maths games and problems for you to solve. You get to travel around a map to different mathematical areas. See what you can do. You could take a screen shot or take a photo of some of your activities. Here is the link:
Have fun.
History:
We have been learning all about the Romans this half term, even though it has been remotely! It is famously known that the Romans invented lots of different things that we still use today. This is a link to the English Heritage site.
It shows you examples of the different Roman inventions that we still use today. Can you then write a list of the inventions, and any more you know of or can find out about and maybe draw some images of the inventions too. You will be amazed by some of them!
Have fun today and don't forget to send in your results from Sports Day. We hope to be able to announce the results next week.
Well done one and all and see most of you next week!
Love Miss Watkins and the Year 4 Team

Such a set of superstars! We have artists, scientists, literary scholars, mathematicians, athletes, gymnasts, swimmers, poets and explorers, to name but a few of the amazing people we have in our class! Take a look at the gallery.
Sports Day photos to follow and results later in the week I think.
Thank you again one and all
Love Miss Watkins and the Year 4 Team
