Year 4

WELCOME TO YEAR 4!

Summer Term 2017

We have another busy term ahead, but we are sure you will all continue to shine and do your best!

This term our topic is The Vikings. Please take a look at our newsletter to find out more about what we will be doing across the curriculum.

At last, it is our turn to go swimming. A great chance to develop or begin to increase your confidence in the water. We are very lucky to have extra help in the pool from Mrs Baker this term.

Spring Term 2017

We would like to wish you all a Happy New Year and we hope you all had a lovely Christmas break.

We have decided that our class New Year Resolution is going to be: Stick together and work as a team!

This term we will be finding out more about our local area and the UK. As part of this topic we will walk around our local area, creating a detailed map about what we see, taking digital images as we go. We will be using Google Earth and Google Maps to help add street names and extra detail. Following we will find out more about the wonderful city we live in - Durham! We will make comparisons with neighbouring cities. Finally we will venture further afield and find out about rivers and mountains in the UK.

Autumn 2016

Our history topic this term is the Tudors. We will be finding out all about this special time in history. Focusing on Kings and Queens, clothing, daily life, Henry VIII and his many wives! During this half term we will have a visit from a Tudor lady who will show us many interesting artefacts and some children will be able to dress like a Tudor girl or boy! We are sure you will enjoy this exciting topic.

We are both looking forward to the year ahead in Year 4!
