Welcome to Year 4

A huge welcome back to out Year 4 children and families. I hope you have had a wonderful summer and are ready for the exciting year ahead. I am so excited to be working with you again and I know we are going to have lots of fun along the way. 

We have made a few changes to our curriculum this year and I can't wait to share these new topics with you. As well as myself, we have the lovely Mrs Wibberley working with us Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. 

This half term is full of exciting things:

• In English, we are exploring the text 'Leon and the Space Between' by Angela Mcallister and we will be writing our own stories. 
• In Maths, we will be learning all about place value of thousands and addition and subtraction of 4 digit numbers. We will be focusing a lot on our times tables too and practising them frequently. 
• In History, we will be learning all about The Romans.
• In Science, we will be learning all about Animals and Humans.
• In Art, we will be learning storytelling through drawing
• In computing, we will be learning coding. 
• In music, MAPAS will be in school every week teaching us lots of new skills.

To find out more about what we will be learning about this half term, please see our newsletter. Also, if you would like to learn more about what we will be up to over the rest of the year, please see our curriculum on a page document.

Earrings must not be worn for P.E. If your child is unable to remove them by themselves, please ensure that they are taken out before school on P.E days. 

We are really looking forward to our time together and we can't wait to get started on our Year 4 journey.
