Year 4
In English we will be writing biographies about a range of people including the main character from our book ‘Street Child’, Queen Victoria and some imaginary characters. We will be focusing on using apostrophes correctly, ensuring our verbs use the correct tense and extending sentences using a range of tools such as conjunctions (when, because, if, so, but) and fronted adverbials (e.g. Despite only being 10 years old,…)
In Maths we will be estimating, measuring and problem solving using units of measure including kilograms and grams / litres and millilitres. We will be using our prior learning of multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000 to help us with this. We will be solving two step problems e.g. Deji is given a 2 litre bottle of Fanta and a 500ml bottle of Fanta. He shares it between himself and four friends. How much do they each get?
Our Science topic is ‘Electricity’. We will be exploring what an electrical circuit needs to work, which materials make the best switches and where electricity comes from.
In History we will learn about how our local area was impacted during the Victorian era and how the world was impacted by the British Empire.
In RE our focus will be on the Islamic pilgrimage Hajj. We will consider what Muslims do during Hajj and how it creates a sense of belonging.
In Personal Develpment we will be learning about how to manage friendships and how we can deal with the emotions that come with loss.
In Art and Design we will be using quilting to create hot pads. Please bring in an old pillowcase for your child to use during this project.
