Year 4 Music
Year 4 have been practising their singing and choral styles in Music this week and have enjoyed discussing the words / lines and singing a new song together.
Year 4 Assessment Week
It's been a tough week at school, with various assessments taking place throughout the week. Year 4 have tried their best to show all of their learning so far this term and hope to achieve some great results!
Year 4 RE
Year 4 have enjoyed decorating their angels for a whole-school piece of artwork, to be used by Church. We cannot wait to see what the completed piece will look like!
Year 4 Communion
On Tuesday, Year 4 spent part of the morning at Church, receiving Communion. The children worked hard to think of their own prayers, which were then read out to the congregation by them, including two readers who read a passage from the Bible. Rev Kev and the other adults were extremely impressed with Year 4's efforts, well done for a lovely service and time had by all.
Year 4 English - Creating Dialogue
In English, Year 4 have been innovating the story of The Pied Piper and needed to change the characters in the tale, to make it our own version. We have been looking at dialogue and how the original characters spoke and acted with one another, to then transfer that to our own ideas and character creations. What better way to do it, than act it out?! We really enjoyed 'becoming' our characters and acting like they would, so we then could create dialogue for them.
Year 4 P.E. - Gymnastics
This half term, the focus of Year 4's P.E. lessons is gymnastics. We are learning how our muscles need to be stretched to prevent injuries before we use them in physical activities and practised moving via a variety of rolls. Year 4 are getting pretty good at this!
Online Safety - Tracking Devices
Tracking devices were designed to help people find lost belongings, but they’ve also opened the door to worrying forms of misuse. This week’s #WakeUpWednesday explores how Bluetooth trackers like AirTags and SmartTags can be misused for stalking, bullying and invading young people’s privacy.

Year 4 Maths Times and Divide
Year 4 have been putting their multiplication and division skills to the test this week in our Maths lessons. We have been finding out the different terms and the patterns of numbers, representing these groups of numbers in different ways with a variety of resources. We have also enjoyed using our Chromebooks in our Maths lessons this week!
Year 4 Class Worship
This week's Class Worship was about the current COP30 meeting in Brazil, for our World Leaders to create a list of things we could do to protect our planet. This linked to our previous Geography unit, and Year 4 were able to share their knowledge of pollution, deforestation and other human actions that aid to the decline of our planet. We came up with some of our own ideas, that we would suggest if present at this meeting, to help protect the world we live in. Year 4 had some fantastic ideas!
Year 4 Science - Sound and Vibrations
Year 4 experimented with different sounds in this week's Science lesson, finding out what varies different aspects of sound, such as volume and pitch. It was a very noisy lesson, but lots of fun and learning took place throughout the different activities!
Year 4 DT - Evaluating Biscuits
Year 4 have begun their new DT topic this half term and we started by evaluating existing biscuits. As you can imagine, this lesson was a winner with the pupils as they got to try lots of different types of biscuits!
Year 4 Music - Making The Sounds Of A Rain Storm
Year 4 music students brought the sounds of a rainstorm to life! After watching an orchestra video that demonstrated how to create rain effects using only their hands, the class worked in groups. They began slowly and quietly, gradually building the intensity and speed of the storm with actions like finger clicks, claps, and jumping. The piece progressed from a gentle shower to a loud, quick downpour.
