Year 4

Year 4 have had a very busy half term!

 

In Literacy we have been reading Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and have produced some really interesting writing based on the text. We had great fun testing a range of sweets to generate lots of interesting vocabulary for our writing! 

 

We have also had a very enjoyable Healthy Lifestyles week where we had the opportunity to learn about nutrition, looking after our teeth and take part in a range of sports. Well done to all of Year 4 for your work this half term! You are awesome! 

In Science we have been learning about solids, liquids and gases.

 

In Geography we have been studying the Amazon Rainforest and I have been very impressed at the quality of our children’s mapwork! We are getting really confident in finding continents and countries and did a great job when exploring the countries in South America where the Rainforest is located. We also learned about the Rainforest climate and what conditions are like in its different layers. We had a really enjoyable Rainforest Experience Day where we explored the different plants and animals that live in the Rainforest and made Rainforest models.

 

RE has been all about churches and we have learned that a church is not just a building – the most important part of a church is the people who come together and worship.
