MATHS
This term we will be looking at fractions. So make sure you are using your fraction walls and finding the equivalent fractions. Learn your times tables and your division facts too. Do visit Times Table Rock stars ! We will be doing statistics and of course addition and subtraction.
Can you solve this puzzle?
1, 2, 3, 4
Using the digits 1, 2, 3 and 4 and +, - , x and ÷ symbols make the numbers from 1 to 30.
Each of the numbers has to be used every time, for example 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10.
Fractions ! Fractions! Fractions!
Some pictures of us creating an equivalent fraction wall in class.

SHAKESPEARE WEEK and NATIONAL POETRY DAY
Year 4 children learned lots this week about the great writer- Shakespeare. Our Shakespeare text was The Tempest. During this week we looked at a style of poetry called Kenning. This style of poetry is extremely old and dates back to the Anglo Saxon and Viking times, our topic.
We used the Kenning style to write about the Tempest characters.
