History
Sharpen your axes and ready the longships, warriors! This term, we’re crossing the icy North Sea to discover the world of the Vikings. From the rugged fjords of Scandinavia to the shores of Lindisfarne, you’ll discover how these seafaring raiders and traders navigated the treacherous waves to leave their mark on history.
Scientists
Get ready to spark your curiosity! This term, we’re diving into the fascinating world of Solids, Liquids, and Gases.We will become State Scientists, learning how to classify the materials all around us based on how they behave. We’ll discover why some things hold their shape while others flow and fill a container, and we'll even investigate the "magic" of how water can transform from a solid block of ice into a flowing liquid and then vanish into an invisible gas!It’s going to be a cool adventure filled with hands-on experiments, melting mysteries, and some seriously bubbly ideas!
Reading
Get ready for a legendary voyage!
This term, we’re diving into Non-Fiction Texts: Explore! Vikings. Cast off with the Norse explorers on a perilous quest across the churning North Sea to prove your mettle as a master of the seas. We’ll sharpen our prediction skills, navigate through vivid historical imagery, and unpick the secrets of Viking longships and legends. Expect soaring vocabulary, crackling debates about Viking raids, and a journey through the heart of the frozen North!
Artists..
Calling all Artists! This term in Art, we’re moving beyond the flat page and stepping into the third dimension as we explore the world of food-inspired sculptures. You’ll learn essential sketching and structural skills—from mastering 3D shading to using wire and clay—to bring your favorite snacks to life.
Get ready to observe, sketch, and build, turning simple shapes into a delicious masterpiece that looks good enough to eat. Let’s get sculpting!
Golden Child
Last term, Amanah was Class 5's Golden child for her incredible transformation. Initially she was nervous and apprehensive, she courageously overcame her fears to become one of our most enthusiastic swimmers. Once in the water, her confidence soared, tackling every task with brilliant attitude. She is a shining example of perseverance.
Well done!
Multiplication Table Check
One of the primary focuses for Year 4 this year is preparing for the Multiplication Check scheduled for July. Understanding the significance of this assessment, we will work diligently throughout the year to ensure that students have a solid grasp of their times tables.
To support our efforts, parents are encouraged to engage with their children in practicing their multiplication facts at home. In our classroom, we will implement a weekly focus on a specific times table, utilizing spare moments during our day. This targeted practice will reinforce memorization, boost confidence, and ensure a firm understanding of multiplication concepts.
A fun way to learn multiplication facts through fun songs!
