The children have had another great week of learning in Year 4!

In Maths, the children have been using mental strategies to add numbers. They are also continuing to work on improving their times table knowledge.

In English, the children have been producing story maps, to retell the story -A River. They have also developed their understanding of where to use a comma, to show a fronted adverbial within a sentence.

In Art, the children have been using charcoal and chalk. They have used language from our text, A River, as a stimulus to make marks in their concertina books. They used the techniques they have learned previously to created textured pictures.

In Science, the children have investigated temperature. They know that a thermometer is used to measure temperature.  They also know that when heat is applied, a solid can change state, to a liquid. The children worked in groups to investigate the temperature that chocolate, ice and sweets melted at.

In geography, the children excitedly used atlases to find and identify rivers around the UK.

Well done to our Weekly Superstar: 4C: Nell and Maisie 4WM.

Many thanks again for supporting your child’s learning.
