Hello,

We welcome you all back from the Christmas break. We hope you had lots of fun and were able to take lots of time to enjoy yourselves. At the beginning of this year we welcome Mrs. Layton into year 4, she has said “I have had a fantastic start. The children have been brilliant.”. Thank you to all the children for making her feel so welcome.

Our new topic for this half term is ‘The Magic Kingdom’ where we will be looking at the state of Florida and all it has to offer.

Here you can find the home learning pyramid for this topic:

Learning Pyramid Magic Kingdom

In our Literacy we have started to write a travel guide to Walt Disney World. We have spent time this week looking at different kinds of sentences. Do you know the difference between a simple, compound and complex sentence?

In our Maths we have looked at the value of fractions and how to find equivalent fractions. This is something that you could try at home with anything you can find such as sweets, fruits, buttons etc…

As always there is My Maths and Abacus homework on the system. We encourage all the children to do this as it helps to consolidate the learning that we have done in class over the  last week.

Thank you,

Year 4 Team
