Y4 Curriculum Mixed Bag

In English this term, we have been using skimming and scanning techniques to aid note-taking about a river creature.  From our notes, we have created informative sentences for the reader with the challenge of using fronted adverbials and rhetorical questions.  We used rainbow writing to organise our sentences into informative paragraphs to produce non-chronological reports on our creature.

In Maths, we have been exploring division through the 'bus stop' method and learning to clever cloud to support us through this process.

In Geography, we have been looking at the water cycle and the four main processes: evaporation, condensation, precipitation and collection.  Following this, we have learned the main features of a river in preparation for our visit to Testwood Lakes.  Watch out for further blogs of our trip.

In RE, we have been looking at the miracles of Jesus and discussed thought provoking statements about Jesus' life.
