Year 4

Thank you for visiting our year 4 page. Here you will find our termly updates.

As mathematicians, we will deepen our knowledge of fractions and decimals. Learners will explore the definitions of key vocabulary such as tenths and hundredths. Mathematicians will solve problems involving partitioning and comparing.

As readers and writers we will explore ‘Lost Happy Endings’ and ‘Secrets of a Sun King’. On Tuesdays we explore Picture News. On Wednesdays, learners will retrieve and infer from the information to develop their comprehension skills. DEAR (Drop everything and read) will take place on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons.

Our topic is Ancient Civilisations. During this topic children will learn about the history of three of the world’s first ancient civilisations: ancient Sumer, ancient Egypt and the Indus Valley civilisation. Children will learn about the rise, life, achievements and eventual end of each civilisation.

Please remember we have P.E on Tuesdays and Swimming on Fridays.
