Year 4 Blog

Year 4 have been learning about The Tudor family. Children have enjoyed writing fact files about Henry V111 and his wives.

Year 4 have had a fantastic opportunity to experience life as a Tudor person when we all went to Ordsall Hall. Looking around the Tudor building including the kitchen, bedrooms, dining hall and the gardens, children learnt lots about how Tudor life was very different to today. Children also took part in a role play involving Henry V111 and his wives, can you work out on the photos who was Henry V111 and who got beheaded?

Year 4 had a phenomenal time at The Bridgewater Hall on Thursday. What a treat it was for the children to play their clarinets with the amazing Halle Orchestra. They thoroughly enjoyed the trip and were amazed at the orchestra playing a tune on fidit spinners. Look out for this being recreated in Year 4!

What a fantastic week Year 4 have had. They had the opportunity to see and handle Egyptian artefacts, meet Pharoah Amohep and thoroughly enjoyed learning about the Egyptian number system. The children were so enthusiastic about our visitors and thought of lots of historical questions throughout the week. They have continued their excptional ideas and have written Egyptian stories. Don't forrget to check out their work near the library. 

A great way to start our North America topic with a flight to Jamaica,  children had their own passport and boarding card and our classroom turned into an aeroplane. Mrs Slate was even an airstewardess!

Children have been learning about the states of the United States and have been researching famous landmarks.  We are looking forward to reading the homework projects about one of the states of America.
