Year 4 have had a very musical week this week in the build up to Eurovision 2023 in Liverpool!

In Music, we listened to and sung 'Oh happy days'. We are starting to see a real change across the year 4 class as children want to develop both musically and culturally by investigating the origins of the chosen piece further.

We enjoyed a live link with schools around the UK and Ukraine to enjoy a School's Euroconcert with the British Council. The children listened to different songs and join in with classes all over. 

With the grand final of Eurovision happening in Liverpool this coming weekend. 

Year 4 took sometime to learn about the contest and watch our very nearer winner from last year. In school in a few weeks, we will be having our own mini Eurovision and Year 4 have chosen Spain as their country. We will learn about the country and language as well as performing The Macarena in a school assembly.

Year 4 had a visit from Elin, our schools well-being educational mental health practitioner. She talked to the children about our physical health but also our mental health. She talked about different emotions and how we can help each other with our mental health. The children learnt about square and hand breathing to help control their feelings. The children are used to talking about different feelings in our PATHs sessions in class and so they seem very comfortable to share experiences and feelings together. 

In English, the children have started their new book 'Westlandia'. We have made some initial predictions and created our own inference questions. The children have then delved deeper using dictionaries to pick out vocabulary and understand the meaning.

In Maths, we started our Geometry unit. This week, we learnt about comparing and ordering angles by their size.

I hope you all have a great weekend and enjoy the Eurovision celebrations if you are. 

Remember Walk to school 15th May to the 19th May.

W/B 1.5.23

What a week it has been!

In English, we have come to the end of our topic 'The Feast'. The children have wrote their own narratives based on the plot points of the short film. The ending has left children thinking about drastic action and how that impacts a story. 

In Maths, we learnt how to identify and measure different types of angles. The children have had a lot of fun measuring and spotting angles in and around the classroom. 

The children have had another visit from CLC in which they had fun designing their own games on the programmed app  SCRATCH. The children love the opportunities to show and develop their technology skills. 

The whole school finished off the week with celebrations of King Charles III's coronation. The children participated in a whole school assembly to celebrate the Best of British Music. Each class performed a song, Year 4 chose Tony Christies hit song 'Is this the way to Amarillo'. This song was a huge hit with the both children and staff singing along lead by Year 4. Amazing performances by everyone. Back in class we completed royal themed activities and wrote poems about what we would do if we were king for a day. 

Have a great weekend everyone.

Year 4 Residential! 
Year 4 have loved every minute of the last two days.

Day 1~
It started with the children assembling their own tents. The children then made their beds and had some fun games after a chippy tea. As darkness fell the children sat around a cozy campfire and ate s’mores and drank hot chocolate. The children then returned to their tents for a needed night sleep as tomorrow would be a busy day

Day 2~
The children woke up with excitement nice and early and took part in some morning mindfulness and calming activities. They then took down their tent and returned all the equipment. This led us to a delicious breakfast which arrived at our door! The children then had one of ‘the best afternoons ever’. They rotated around a series of activities starting with Bumper Zorb balls and continuing onto Archery. The children then had some lunch and scaled the rock climbing wall. It was huge we have some very brave children in Year 4! After the climbing wall it was time to say goodbye and the children backs packed back up return home for the weekend.

Later in the week,  the children also watched and learnt about the Christmas story through a  puppet show. 

A huge well done to all of KS1 for their fantastic nativity performance. Year 4 got to watch the dress rehearsal and enjoyed joining in with the singing of the catchy songs.

There is nothing like some good carol singing to get in the festive spirit and a time to light up the Grange Valley’s wish tree.  All the children made a Christmas wish for hope or love and their wishes have been hung on the tree outside the Year 2 classroom. See if you can find your child’s wish! 

On Friday, the whole school enjoyed our Christmas dinner, with music, crackers and lots of laughter (maybe not from the cracker jokes!) 

Around all this Christmas fun, Year 4 still managed to learn about different genre's in Music and continuing our focus in Math on further multiplication and division.

Well done Year4 LM 

W/B 12.9.22

Our second week in Year 4 has come to an end. This week we have had a big focus on getting back into a good, positive school routine.   

In English we have continued with our circus theme by learning more about what makes a great story. Throughout the week we have learned how to use a range of conjunctions, created a story success criteria and finally wrote our own narrative on the book 'Leon and the place between'. The children's amazing narratives will be displayed on our 'WOW' wall  for all to see.

In Science we have been learning about the different ways we can group animals. I have been pleased to see just how eager the children have been to learn about vertebrates and invertebrates. The children couldn't wait to tell everyone their fun facts and watch videos of invertebrates in action such as an Octopus fitting through tight spaces. 

Our focus in Maths has continued with place value specifically comparing and ordering four digit numbers. The children have responded well to all the challenging questions asked by myself,  using fantastic Maths terminology when describing their answers. The children have also used place value counters to assist them in their working out. 

 In Geography the children have investigated the three states of matter (solids, liquids and gases) as part of our water cycle topic. This has provided opportunities to discuss how we can change an objects state such as melting a chocolate bar or  boiling water.

Finally, in class this week have held a democratic vote for a new school council member. We had over 15 children put their name in the ballot, each announcing their reasons why you should vote for them.  I am pleased to announce after all the votes had been counted that 4LM has selected a new school council member. The winner was Mia! She wrote -" I would like to be a school council member so I can help everybody if they are feeling lonely or hurt. I want to make our school a happier place for everyone".

We have continued with a great start to the year! Yet again I want to thank the children for their hard work and willingness to go the extra mile to help others around school.
