This Term's Topics

  • Roald Dahl
  • Science: Sound
  • Science: Human Nutrition
  • Jigsaw: Dreams and Goals
  • Spring term.
    This term we will be reading the stories of Roald Dahl and using his stories as a stimulus for our writing. The pieces of writing will include recipes, instructions, creating Roald Dahl inspired settings, items and character descriptions. We will read Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Danny Champion of the World and Billy and the Minpins as well as other Dahl titles.

    Science
    Our Science Topics this term are sound and human nutrition. In these topics, we will learn about the parts of the ear and their functions as well as how sound travels. We will also learn about the digestive system, the functions of different organs and how to eat a varied and balanced diet.

    Maths
    This term in Maths we will be focusing on further multiplication and division, length and perimeter before progressing onto fractions and decimals. There will be a focus on arithmetic to consolidate what has been taught in daily maths lessons. We will also work hard on instant recall of times tables, in particular through the use of Times Table Rock Stars, Doodle Tables and Doodle Maths. Please note that the Y4 Times Table check takes place in June, where children are expected to know tables up to 12x12 with rapid recall.


    PE
    In PE this term we will be consolidating fundamental movement skills through modified games. We will also teach some small sided games that incorporate net and wall skills as well as striking a moving object and manipulating equipment such as rackets and bats.

    Times Table Rockstars: Keep learning your tables!

    Doodle.
    This term, rather than send out weekly spellings and times tables, we would like the children to work on their times tables and spellings through the use of the Doodle App. The aim is to try to stay in the green zone.

    Reading
    It is important to keep reading and practise the skills you already have. Try to make sure that you are reading every day. Don't forget to look up any unfamiliar words in a dictionary or ask an adult to explain the meaning. Ask questions about what has been read and make predictions as to what might happen next.
