Year 4 have continued to impress us this week.................
Yesterday, we had our first swimming lesson! Everyone swam 25m or more from deep to shallow end - even jumping in!!!!!! It's going to be a fantastic year for swimming, I can tell!
We launched our WW2 topic yesterday and began learning by gathering information and carrying out research as well as a taster of what an air raid would have been like!
All children visited the library and have a new book to read along with our new reading records, which are to replace the diaries. Please could these be shared and written in by either parents or children when they have read and then come back to school everyday. This is because, you will see, there are useful pages in the middle of the book that we may use during literacy lessons.
In science today, we began our topic for this half term all about electricity. Following this lesson we began learning about the music of Edward Elgar, expressing our thoughts and feelings about the piece of music through art.
Tomorrow, the children will come home with spellings to be learned by next Friday as well as a times table that will be on their sheet. They will also come home with a new Reading Journal that we would like covered please! You can decorate the cover with pictures of your favourite things - authors, books, book covers, hobbies, animals etc. It will need to be in by the end of next week.
Our Class Charter:
We have the right to learn and have an education. We have the right to play and feel safe. We have the right to be happy and have fun. We have the right to talk and have our own opinion. We have the right to have friends. We have the right to use equipment to help us play and learn.
We have the responsibility to try our best. We have the responsibility to be kind and to play together. We have the responsibility to be sensible and focussed when we need to be. We have the responsibility to listen and respect the opinions of others. We have the responsibility to care for other people. We have the responsibility to look after equipment and use it properly.
These were discussed and decided on by the class and we have all signed the agreement. Please discuss these at home to reinforce the importance of a class charter.
See you all tomorrow!
Don't forget, next Thursday at 9:00 am is the Year 4 parents information session in the hall!
