Yr 4 Looking Back and Forth - Including the topics for next half term

🔙 Looking Back – What a wonderful exhibition.

We are so proud of the class and all of their hard work.

💬 Ask at Home

Why not continue the learning at home by asking your child:

• What was the piece of work you enjoyed completing the most?
• What piece are you most proud of?
• What was your favourite experience throughout the Exhibition – Bidlea Farm Mr and Mrs Brown, Asha refugee assembly, Yoga, Pigeon Man Performing for families or the Alpacas?

🔜 Looking Ahead – Half Term in Year 4

• We look forward to seeing you all after half term, when we will begin a number of new topics.
• Maths – Addition and Subtraction methods, Arithmetic and TTRockstars
• English – Biographies
• Science – States of matter
• History/Geography – George Mallory
• Computing – Stop Frame Animation
