Year 4 News

Year 4 have settled in so well to the start of our new year.  This week we have designed and created Egyptian-inspired plaques linking to our History topic this half term. We made these out of salt-dough and carved Ancient Egyptian designs onto them. They are still drying out so we hope to paint them next week! We have also spent this week getting stuck into our RE unit on Spiritual expression and have looked at how music is used to express spirituality across different religions and how many religious songs derive from sacred texts. Children in Year 4 will be going home with their homework on Friday, they are expected to practise their spellings for their tests at the end of each week and will also need to hand in their times tables sheets and handwriting sheets every Friday. Their Topic homework is due by the end of the term, please see the table in their homework books for homework tasks to complete. Starbooks will start next week and children will need to have 3 times in the week and have this recorded in their partnership book for them to recieve their treat. Children can also practise on Times Tables Rockstars using their school login at home in preparation for the Year 4 Multiplication Tables Check in the Summer Term. Children in Year 4 will be swimming in October and because of this, we will not be doing PE until after our swimming block. Have a lovely weekend.
