Look What We've Been Up To!
Autumn Term
Maths
Place Value
As part of our place value work exploring 4-digit numbers,
we used digit cards and place value charts to order and
compare numbers. We had different problems to solve and we had to find different solutions to each problem.
PSHE
Hello Yellow
On Friday we wore something yellow to come to school. This was so we could raise awareness about looking after our mental health and wellbeing. As you can see from the smiles on our faces, we had a lovely day! We talked about the importance of looking out for our mental and physical health and explored some of the things that we can do to help.
Macmillan Coffee Morning
We celebrated the Macmillan Coffee Morning by bringing in cakes and selling them in class. Our school councillors organised everything and we really enjoyed these treats. Thank you to everyone involved for your amazing generosity.
History
Mere Tun Trip
As part of our topic on history topic about the Anglo-Saxons, Year 4 recently visited Martin Mere and their settlement of Mere Tun. Here we experienced life in Anglo-Saxon times. During the visit we went foraging in the woods for materials that would be useful in camp, we weaved a pig pen from willow, we learnt how to thatch a roof using reeds and we learnt to defend the village from Viking attack. We all had an amazing day and learnt so much.
Maths
Nice & Nasty
We played a game today based on 4-digit numbers. 
Game 1 Take turns to throw a 0-9 dice and decide which of your four cells to fill. Do this four times each until all your cells are full. Whoever has the largest four digit number wins.
Game 2 Whoever makes the smallest four digit number wins.
Game 3 Set a target to aim for. Then throw the dice four times each and work out how far each of you is from the target number.
British Values
Democracy
Year 4 presented a short assembly about the British value of Democracy. We explained how democracy started in Ancient Greece; how it works in Britain today and how we use a democratic process when we elect our new school council at the start of each year.
Maths
The Calendar Problem
We were given 12 month cards that looked
similar to this. However none of the cards
had the name of the months on. Our job
was to attempt to name each month, order
them correctly and rebuild the calendar.
this. Where would you start? What do you
know about the number of days in each
month?
School Council Elections 2025
Well done to everyone who took part in the school council elections and put themselves forward to be a school councilor. The standard was very high this year and it was a very difficult job for the children to decide who to vote for. After listening to each candidates' ideas, all of the class went to the polling station to cast their votes. It was a very close run thing. Congratulations to our two new year 4 councilors!
