Year 4 - Spindle and Cherry

Welcome to Team Spindle 

Mrs Thomson, Miss Hiscock, Mrs Morton

Welcome back!

Term one is going to be an exciting and full term.

Topic

We are looking at Around the World for our topic and we are reading Kensuke's Kingdom; a tale of adventure on a desert island!

We are lucky enough to have made contact with a school in New York and will be swapping letters and paintings. We will also write our names in Japanese, create a haiku and look at different countries.

Maths

Maths will concentrate on place value, the four operations (addition/subtraction/division and multiplication), properties of shape and fractions. 

Literacy

During Literacy we will be writing a narrative, creating a leaflet for surviving on a desert island and reporting on the disappearance of Michael, the main character in Kensuke's Kingdom. 

Homework will be on a Friday. Maths will be due back on the following Monday and the spelling test will be the following Friday.

PE is every Friday. A white t-shirt will be provided for each child. 

Learning together afternoon

The Year 4 learning together afternoon will be this Friday from 2.15pm until 3.15pm. Please do come along and help your child make a poppy for our Remembrance Display.
