Here is Year 4's learning and achievements from this week:

 

Maths: We continued with our learning of multiplication and division. This week we identified and used factor pairs and multiplied by 10 and 100.

English: We continued our sentence stacking based on our book The Whale. We also took part in an experience day related to our main character Lucy - building our own rafts!

 

Science: We learnt that living things depend on each other within an ecosystem and how there can be both positive and negative impacts.

History: We continued our learning of Ancient Rome by focusing on Roman society and how it became a republic. We learnt the ordering of society, starting with the consul (two members elected annually to run the city), senators (up to 300 who have the post for life and advise the consul), patricians (wealthy men who own land and money), plebeians (who are poor and do not own property) and slaves (owned and undertook most manual work).

Geography: We continued our learning of Eastern Europe by focusing on the climate. We learn that there are different climates in Eastern Europe and countries closer to the North Pole are colder, whereas countries closer to the Equator are warmer. We also learnt the climate in Eastern Europe is continental. 

RE: We continued our study of Buddhism by speaking about Anicca (change). We spoke about changes in our lives and how this made us feel.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PSHE: We continued our learning of Dreams and Goals. This week we focused on how sometimes our dreams and goals do not come true, but spoke about being resilient when this doesn't happen.

Handwriting: We finished our studying of hard letters z, f and x.

Spellings: We focused on the spelling rules s, and es.
