Well done to all of you who have already handed in your sheets given out last week and to those of you who have kept up with your mymaths homework!

Keep up the hard work!

It’s been a while coming…

by Year Four teacher on January 19, 2012

Hello;

It has been quite a while since our last posts, but we resolve to make more time for this in the future!

This term, as you might know, our topic is space. We are looking at lots of exciting things such as the planets, why we have night and day and the space race. There are loads of great websites for children out there to look at when you are at home too! We will also be looking at planets and space for our art projects this term.

In Mr Coates’ maths set we have just finished looking at multiplication and long division and our brains are full to bursting with some great new skills! We have also signed the children up to ‘MyMaths’ a website where they will be given homework activities etc (letter to follow in book-bags)!

In literacy we have been following our space theme with some work on creation stories from other cultures, and writing about the theory that we (the children)  believe in. We have had some great theories from giant asteroids colliding with the moon, to the Big Bang theory!

Our spellings this week are based on the /ng/ phoneme:

Group 1: hang, sung, sting, bring, wings, strong, singing, tongs, adding, grabbing.

Group 2: strong, string, bringing, length, strength, amazingly, angrily, assisting, communicating, longest.

Have fun!

Mr Coates and Miss Blake.

For the last couple of weeks we have been working hard on understanding fractions. We have been looking at fractions of shapes and amounts, fraction word problems and what fractions equal a whole.

Please remember your homework is due in this Friday (9th ) and should be addition revision.

Keep practicing your times tables also! Our multiplication facts are really improving. Keep up the hard work!
