This week, some further work about sound, and how the ear hears. Our learners have labelled the ear and learned about the role each part plays.

Well done Isabelle for earning your HT award this week. 

 

We are moving on to our next book, and this will be The Man Who Bought A Mountain, which we have had on our book corner display.

Also on our displays is this week's learning in English. We have put together two ideas to make one sentence with a connecting word. Our learners are using the mnemonic FANBOYS to help them remember the different words they can use to join up their ideas. This is so easy to practise at home. Perhaps you can think of things you would like to do. For example "Get dressed, but first brush your teeth."

 

Maths has been all about rounding. We have learned when we should round a number up, and when we should round a number down. This is an essential skill, particularly when thinking about everyday activities such as budgeting with money. We end the week with counting backwards through the zero mark. Using negative numbers is upon us all soon, as we come closer to Winter. 

 

Our topic take us through climate zones this week. Looking at the world, our learners are finding the different climate zones - tropical, polar, arid/desert and temperate.

This week we have been learning about sound, and how sound waves are received by the ear. We have also moved on our Geography to start looking at climate. Our learners used their ICT learning to create presentations about the weather and climate. 

Thankyou for your patience with the spellings. Please ensure your child keeps their homework book in their bags so that we can stick in their spellings. Tracks spellings come home for practice but are carried out in interventions. 

 

This week's spellings lessons and practice are:

 

HEXAGONS                                                                                                             PENTAGONS

Your child will have been given a learning log to select and record their learning for our topic areas each half term. This also details the daily practices required for year 4. 

 

 

 

Swimming News

 

We have had some questions about swimming, and this will happen in the summer term.

 

The whole school should soon receive an overview of all the trips for each year group, as this was part of the parent forum feedback last year.

PE DAYS are MONDAYS

 

SPELLINGS are tested on FRIDAYS

For the first two weeks, our spellings focus on the AU spelling pattern. Below, you will see an example. The table shows the overview for the term. Our learners have taken home a practice sheet so that they can trace then copy each spelling to learn it.
