As we enter the last few weeks of the school Year, Year 4 have been having lots of fun. We had a very successful sports day last week and it was lovely to see all of the children participating and cheering their teams – well done!<\/p>\n
In literacy, we have been reading the text ‘Beowulf’ by Michael Morpurgo. The children have written some emotive diary entries in role as King Hrothgar – here is an extract by Nicolas (4HA):<\/p>\n
‘ Heartbroken. It’s the only word I can use to describe this terrible day. I sit here writing to you Diary as my hand shakes with fear and tears drip down in terror. The hellish monster has destroyed everything, even my strong warriors. I thought we would be safe but I failed. What am I going to do?’<\/em><\/p>\n Ask your children what the desperate King did next!<\/p>\n In maths we continue to do daily arithmetic with a focus on choosing the correct method to use to solve a calculation. We have also been working out the perimeter of shapes and using our knowledge of converting fractions and decimals to help.<\/p>\n There are lots\u00a0of exciting things happening in the next couple of weeks including the Year 4 camping trip\u00a0 which we’re all looking forward to!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As we enter the last few weeks of the school Year, Year 4 have been having lots of fun.
