"Entry Point: This week we returned to school following half term with a special event taking place within the hall. I am sure your children have shared the 'Earthquakes and Volcanoes' entry point to our topic with you. We took part in a number of activities in the hall following a 'tremor' in the year 4 corridor including; trust activities, survival packs, first aid and also computer based research" Mrs. Quinn. "In Maths, we have turned our attention to multiplication and division in Year 4 having studied addition and subtraction in the first half term. As shared with the home learning this week, we have been sharing different methods to tackle multiplication. Miss. Mercer has shared within home learning that shows the strategy taught in Year Four." Mr Powell | In English, following writing diary entries about the Pompeii disaster, we have turn our attention to Explanation Texts - mainly focusing on the features of an explanation text. Below is an example of an 'Explanation Text' that you may wish to discuss with your children. |
Next weekNext week we will be continuing with studying explanation texts and building up to writing our own within English. In Maths we will be focusing on the relationship between multiplication and division. The video is a simple introduction to the concept of inverse operations! | |
