Year 4 News

This week in English, we have continued to try to persuade the Viking King to stay in Scandinavia and not invade Northumberland. We have had to use the features of persuasive writing- rhetorical questions, flattery, exaggeration whilst also considering the features of a letter. Additionally, we have learned about Sutton Hoo and what was left in the burial site for an Anglo-Saxon King.

VE Day was fun- we learned lots! Part of what we learned was how important the Spitfire was in winning WW2. This linked back to our Local History Day from last term when we found out Rolls Royce and the engines they created for many aeroplanes used in battles.

Remember, swimming is on Monday, PE is on Tuesday and next week, we go to Perlethorpe on Thursday. A busy week!

Please read at home, learn times tables and practice spellings (below). Topic homework also came home a couple of weeks ago.
