Year Four weekly post

The following link will give you access to the most recent Lent reflection to share with your children at home.

Weekly Prayer

This week the children have been busy learning about conversion in Maths.  We have looked at different representations of the same height, weight and distance.

Here is an example of one child’s work from this week:

The children have also be exploring problems such as:

Simon and Matthew were taking 2 tents with them on the hike.  Altogether the tents were 4.2metres tall.  One of the tents was definitely less than 1.5m tall.  How high could each of the tents be?

OR:

Sarah and Stanley are packing food boxes for the Scout Hike. They are two boxes: Box A and Box B.

Box A and Box B                            =    1.2kg

Fran and Paddy are going to take two Box A and One Box B

Box A + Box A + Box B                  = 1.9kg

The children think Box A and Box B are the weight. Are they right? Convince me!

How heavy is Box A?

How heavy is Box B?

 

In Literacy, the children have been writing stories where the main character is taken to another world unexpectedly. We have been exploring how we can use short sentences to make the reader feel scared for the main character to much success.

Here is an example of some writing from this week:

Have a lovely weekend to all.
