Another fantastic week of learning in Year 4! The weather has been very mixed, but thankfully the children have still managed to get outside and enjoy being with their friends.

In English, we have been planning our diary writing from the perspective of Howard Carter, focusing on the events leading up to the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb. The children have enjoyed stepping into the shoes of the famous archaeologist and thinking carefully about how he might have felt during this exciting time.

In maths, the children have risen to the challenge of learning about equivalent fractions and adding fractions with the same denominator, showing resilience when tackling tricky questions.

In Music, we explored pitch by investigating high and low sounds, while in PE we continued developing our athletics skills through sprinting and practising the triple jump.

4C even managed to fit in their Golden ticket celebration, and enjoyed making dens with their friends!

Congratulations to this week's superstars: -
