Year 4 Classes
Our Year 4 classes are taught by Mrs Hicks and Mrs Vallis.
The two classes are called Willow and Sycamore.
During PPA each week, the children are taught by Mrs. Law. They have specialist computing lessons in which they learn about, practice and apply different I.T. skills to complement in-class learning. The children also learn about e-safety.

Please see the PDF below that outlines the content of the children's learning for Spring term.
Over the last two terms, we have really enjoyed our topic; Tomb Raiders. Children have learnt about the Egyptian Gods, life in Ancient Egypt and beliefs and rituals of the Egyptians. As part of the learning, children have made papyrus paper, shadufs and canopic jars. We also visited the British Museum which has really brought their learning to life!
In English our writing has been based on the story 'Secrets of a Sun King.' The children have written trip advisor reviews, newspaper articles and narratives.
Year 4 have worked extremely hard writing Egyptian narratives, which they published in beautiful mini books complete with illustrations, front covers and a blurb.
