Hello
This week we have been very busy exploring how to describe our character creations (aliens). It's been lovely to see the children's imaginations at work and we have some very unique characters. I will use this first piece of published work to assess the children's first writing targets, for example: remember commas in a list etc.
In Maths, we have continued to explore place value of numbers (yr 3 up to 1,000, yr 4 up to 10,000) and have started using the class counting stick to help us increase our speed and accuracy recall of the times table facts - starting with 2x. At the end of Year 4, all children will sit the government's Multiplication Times table check and their results will be published in their end of year report.
In P.E, we have started our hockey unit and in Music have been exploring 'the Nutcracker' composition. I'm looking forward to hear how the Year 4s found their first school swimming lesson later on Friday too.
I wish you a happy weekend.
Mr Dring
