Year 4
This term our topic in Year 4 is Watery Worlds.
In English we will be reading a story called, ‘Adventure at Sandy
Cove’, and using this as inspiration to write our own Finding Tale. We will be investigating a ‘crime scene’ where we will have to use our detective skills and decide on a possible theory that might have taken place using the clues
to help us. From this, we will read the story and find out what really happened at Sandy Cove! At the end of the term, we will be writing and persuasive text all about the fictional Sandy Cove, an area of outstanding natural beauty.
In Maths we will be learning how to read and interpret data presented in bar charts and line graphs. We will practise multiplying one digit numbers by two and three digit numbers and we will explore the 7 and 9 times tables along with the related division facts. Towards the end of the term, we will revisit telling the time on both analogue and digital clocks and learn how to convert between 12 hour and 24 hour formats.
In Science we will be learning all about living things and their habitats. We will sort animals into various groups, such as vertebrates and invertebrates, according to their features. We will use classification keys to sort and identify plants and look at how humans impact the natural world in positive and negative ways.
In Humanities we will learn about the physical geography of planet Earth including how the planet is split up into
hemispheres.
In Music on the ukulele, we will learn how to play a triplet pattern and a triplet chord as well as know what quavers and semiquavers are when reading music.
In RE we will our focus will be on ‘Humanism’, what it means to be a Humanist and how their beliefs differ from others.
