We have had another brilliant week in year 4.

On Friday, we went to the Time and Tide museum, where we experienced living in Roman Britain. We were slaves to a rich Roman lady, we were Celtic druids making potions, we were Roman legionnaires and we were Iceni warriors with blue painted faces. The children behaved brilliantly and were given a great platform for our work in Topic and English.

In maths, we are ordering numbers in the thousands. If your child would like to practice, this is a good game that they can try at home:  click here .

Don't forget that your child has access to a brilliant reading resource: Bug Club. They can check their logon details in class if they are unsure. They also have a logon to Education City, details of which are stuck into their home learning books (Giraffes will go in next week).

        In Topic this week we have been looking at timelines and thinking about what AD and BC (CE and BCE) actually mean.
       This week all the children have made their own story book, including beautiful illustrations during Art. These are nearly finished and we have been very impressed with their work and creativity so far.
       In Maths, we have continued to work on place value, including thousands.
     
       Don't forget it is our trip to the Time and Tide Museum tomorrow, so all the children will need a packed lunch. Please could they wear school uniform and they need to being a coat please.

       Ms Taylor has very much enjoyed working in Year 4 this week.
       Have a lovely weekend.

Hello all, and welcome to another new year!

We have made a flying start and the children have come into school keen and ready to learn.

We have started our topic 'I am Warrior', which is all about the Romans in Britain. You will know by now that we will be taking the children to the Time and Tide museum in Yarmouth, where we will find out about the Romans and the Celtic rebellion.

On Friday, your child will bring hone their Home Learning book. In it, you will find a range of learning activities for you and your child to complete at home. We would like the book returned every Wednesday, please, so that we can send it back out on Friday.

In the home learning book, you will also find 10 activities that your child can do. The are a National Trust initiative that we have adopted in school as a way of broadening the childrens' experience.

Your child also has a reading record book, which we would also like to collect in on Wednesday. Please encourage your child to keep a record of what they are reading and what you are reading to them. Feel free to include any comments on the reading.
