Year 4 Weekly News, week commencing 17th May

Hello!

Thank you as always for all your help and support.

This week’s learning in Year 4:

Maths: We are continuing our revision of key skills by exploring the distributive laws of multiplication. We will be using adjacent multiples to help us work out answers and using partitioning to help us to solve calculations involving larger 2 digit numbers.

English: We are continuing to read Ice Palace by Robert Swindells and will be story mapping the story so far before exploring Ivan’s feelings and actions as he approaches Starjik’s lair. We will be writing in role, hot seating some characters and drawing and annotating our impressions of parts of the story.

DT: We will be exploring the sustainability of reusable bags and designing our own bags for life

PE: We will be continuing to develop our bowling and batting skills in cricket.

ICT: We are continuing to use Isle of Tune to compose a piece of music for a Pharaoh’s funeral.

Homework is a continuing project exploring our History topic, the Ancient Egyptians. Pick one task each week to complete and post your results on Google Classroom.
