This week in Year 4

Year 4 Weekly Update

This week in Year 4, we have been busy with lots of exciting learning across the curriculum. In Maths, the children have been practising rounding numbers to the nearest 10, 100 and 1,000, developing their confidence with place value. In Writing, we have been identifying and using the verbs to be and to have, and learning how these verbs change when writing in the past tense.

In Science, the children investigated which materials are best at insulating sound, making predictions and recording their results. In Geography, we explored topographical maps of the UK, learning how to identify the height of land and compare different areas. It has been a great week of learning, and the children have shown excellent enthusiasm and effort throughout.

The children have continued with swimming lessons this week. Swimming lessons have been extended so children will be swimming on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week.

Reminders

Swimming: Please ensure that children are sent to school with their swimming bags every day. 

PE Days: Please ensure that you are sending children in wearing their school PE kit.

Water Bottles: Please make sure your child has a named water bottle each day.

Reading Books: We’d love to keep up momentum - just 10 minutes a night makes a huge difference.
