Year 4- Foxes Class

Hello from the Foxes class.

We have had a brilliant Spring term, working extremely hard in all areas of the curriculum and producing some incredible work. A real standout was World Book Day, where the children dressed up as their favourite characters. We also wrote a sequel to the book 'Leaf'!

We have had an exciting trip to Hill End for our Anglo-Saxons day. Consolidating all of the learning we have done bout the Anglo Saxons. We are looking forward to our Year 4 residential trip next term.

We will begin to look at money and division with remainders, as well as consolidating our maths knowledge from across the year. If you would like to support your children with any maths learning outside of school, we would recommend the children working on their multiplication to support their upcoming Multiplication check. Children can use the website below to help get used to the multiplication check that they will be taking in the summer term Multiplication Tables Check - Mathsframe.

Arthur and the Golden Rope - Joe Todd-Stanton

This fictional story follows the a boy, Arthur, who embarks upon a quest to relight a fire before villagers freeze to death. He asks upon the help of Viking Gods to help with his mission. This exciting and uplifting book introduced the children to Norse Gods and will allow our pupils to create their own narrative similar to this story!
