Year 4 2025-2026 Blog

Matt Goodfellow returns to BBF!

On Thursday 27th April we will be joined by Manchester based poet Matt Goodfellow. He will perform some of his poems in assembly and during poetry workshops throughout the day. The children thoroughly enjoyed working with him last year and I am sure they will create some amazing poetry with him again next week.

Please ask your child to share their poetry with you on Thursday. 


Eggiting Eggperiments

Year 4 got the chance to set up their experiment today to see how sugary drinks affect their teeth. They used eggs to represent teeth and will be comparing those placed in water, milk, vinegar, orange juice and coke, with and without toothpaste. Keep checking our blogs for the results. 


Ordering Fractions

Year 4 have been working hard in understanding fractions and applied their knowledge today when they ordered fraction cards. They found it quite a challenge, especially with different shapes and sizes.

Super Science

Year 4 had lots of fun examining their teeth in science. They were able to identify how many teeth they had and how many they'd lost, alongside naming and understanding the function of their teeth. Keep checking out our blogs to find out the experiment we will be doing later on in the week to see how different drinks affect your teeth. 


Rivers

Year 4 were very excited to explore their new reading resource today. The visual history of rivers is a beautiful book and the children were very impressed by the illustrations and information. They spent a long time exploring, sharing the books and discovering new things. 


Year 4 MTP

Dear Parents, Carers I do hope you've all had a lovely Easter break and are ready and the children are raring for our new term . This half term our main geography topic will be looking at the formation of rivers and mountains. Here the children will be learning firsthand about erosion and deposition on our trip to Park Bridge on the 15th May. Keep an eye out for the letter next week. This topic links fabulously with our science learning which is about the water cycle.


Fabulous Year 4

Year 4 have had a massive amount of certificates given out today, from swimming, handwriting, attendance and merits. Great work Year 4.
