Year 4

Central idea: A healthy lifestyle can be impacted by external influences.

This week, the children have been bringing their inquiry learning to a close with great enthusiasm and reflection. They have made their own healthy lunches, putting into practice everything they’ve learned about making balanced choices. Alongside this, they have been exploring the idea of a growth mindset, expressing their thinking creatively through Haiku poems.

As part of their science learning, the children have identified the different types of teeth we have and discussed why it’s important to take good care of them, sharing this with our Early Years children. They have also been thoughtful in considering their next steps as learners, showing growing independence and self-awareness.

In mathematics, the children have continued to strengthen their skills in adding and subtracting with exchange and have begun to develop their understanding of area.

It has been a fantastic way to round off this module, with reflection, creativity, and a real sense of achievement.
