Year 4 Blog

Please find attached a grid containing some outdoor learning activities that your child can do at home.  There are activities for children in early years, ages 5 to 9 and 9 to 12.  You and your child can of course choose an activity from any section. I will add a new grid each week.  Any photos or work can be uploaded on to seesaw and sent to your class teacher.  I hope that you enjoy these activities and look forward to hearing all about them.  

Take care

The Winter Mini Challenge encourages children to keep reading through the winter holidays by rewarding them for reading and reviewing books.

To take part in the Winter Mini Challenge online, children simply read any books of their choice, then rate and review them at  www.wintermini.org.uk. Prizes for taking part include a  certificate and a virtual badge. The website above will also feature activities, recommendations for great winter reads, and competitions.

We are using a new scheme in school called 'Letterjoin'. All of these children have impressed their teachers! Their magnificent work has been displayed on our writing display near Mrs Parker's office.

Year 4 are enjoying their current topic about Christmas around the World.  They had a real treat when Miss Laitil gave a presentation about Christmas in Poland recenty!  They even had the chance to taste some Polish treats such as Barszcz (Beetroot Soup), Paszteciki (Mushroom Parcels) and Makowiec (Poppy Seed Cake).  The class used what they had learnt to write their fantastic non-chronological reports.  Well done!  Mrs Blomeley
