Word Types

It was lovely to meet you all properly at Parents' Evening this week. I discussed the word types that the children need to know with a few parents and thought it would be useful to upload these definitions. Hope this helps!

Homework this week.
admin on: Class 4
The homework this week is in response to something many of the children found difficult this week in maths - the division written method! It is very common for children in Year 4 to struggle to grasp this and it is indeed the hardest of the four operations. So with that in mind, I have given the children a selection of activities on IXL that they can try to help them understand division. If your child is finding division difficult, please have a go at some of the first five activities (please don't try to finish them all!). If your child has found division okay, then try the 6th activity.
IXL Maths: I.1, I.2, I.3, I.4 and I.5. (For children struggling with division) L.6 (for children who feel confident with division).
IXL English G.1 on prepositions.
Spellings:
Heavily
Merrily
Sleepily
Easily
Bicycle
Breath
Breathe
Build
Have a great weekend!

Egyptian Day
admin on: Class 4
We had a fantastic day yesterday celebrating all things Ancient Egyptian. Thank you so much for the effort made with the costumes, everyone looked great! We tried lots of different food, some more popular than others! We also embalmed a tomato which we will now wait 3 weeks to see the results. In the afternoon, we made our own hieroglyph bookmark before starting our Egyptian death masks.
Week 6 in Class 4
admin on: Class 4
This week in Class 4 we have imagined we were Howard Carter, discovering the tomb of King Tutankhamun. We have written diary entries which are coming along nicely! We have also learnt what it is like to be a predator and a prey in the very popular predator/prey game. The children have asked to play it as part of our daily exercise every day since Monday!
Also, I would like to thank the parents that visited Class 4 on Monday daytime as well as during the evening. It is always great to see parents visiting!
Don't forget it is Egyptian Day on Wednesday next week, so please send your child in costume on Wednesday, if you can. I will post some pictures for you next week. I sent an alert out earlier today about bringing in a cereal box next week, we will need it for our Egyptian death masks which we are creating.
The homework this week is:
English E.1 and E.2 on articles.
Maths H.8 and H.10 on multiplication.
The spellings are:
Angrily
Bossily
Breezily
Cheekily
Cosily
Heavily
Happily
Hastily
Thanks, as always for your support. Have a great weekend!
