Year 4 2021 - 2022
Autumn Term in Year 4
Year 4 have had a busy Autumn term filled with lots of fun and exciting activities! Take a look below to see what we have been up to.
World Mental Health Day
We marked this special day by wearing the brightest and best clothes we could to celebrate this very important day. Throughout the day, we talked about metal health and how important it was to take care of our mental health.
Mindfulness Choice Day
As part of our PSHE learning about mental health, we had a choice day where we focused on the importance of mindfulness and allowing ourselves time to focus and become more self aware. During this day, we decided we would like to paint, read and complete Yoga. We had a fantastic day!
Reading in Year 4
This year, Year 4 have discovered a love of reading! We read every day and enjoy our reading sessions. In Guided Reading this term, we read The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane and it was our favourite story! We love to read in the reading corner, listen to audio book and recommend books to each other! We even visited the St Nicholas Reading Café this term, we had juice and biscuits, browsed the new books and choose our favourites to go in our class reading corner!
Remembrance Day 2022
Year 4 marked Remembrance Day with a thoughtful and reflective class assembly. We remembered all who have fought and lost their lives to war. Our parents joined us to mark this special day.
Spring Term in Year 4
The Spring term has started off brilliantly for Year 4. Take a look below to see what we have been up to!
Herd Farm Residential
We started the term with a very exciting adventure - our very first overnight residential! We went to Herd Farm, for an action packed few days of adrenaline filled activities. Have a look at our photos below.
National Story Telling Week
We loved celebrating National Story Telling week! Our favourite parts of the week included: our parents surprising us as secret readers and coming to school in our pyjamas with our favourite bed time story book!
Year 4's Autumn Curriculum
Year 4 did lot's of exciting learning across the curriculum this term, from investigations in Science to being taught tennis by a professional tennis coach! Take a look below at our gallery of picture to see what fun we got up to!
Advent in Year 4
During the season of Advent, Year 4 reflected on how we can be the best versions of ourselves and help others on the lead up to Christmas. We also had lots of fun at our St Nicholas Day sleepover, Christmas party and even had some of Santa's little helpers arrive in the Year 4 classroom!
We loved our first term in Year 4 and can not wait to see what the Spring term has in store for us!
Year 4's Spring Curriculum
So far, the Spring term has brought with it lots of excitement for Year 4! We have worked with Groundworks to learn more about our local area, had skipping training from the skipping school and learnt all about Ancient Greece. Take a look at our photo gallery below to see everything we have been learning!
