Year Four

Welcome to Year 4,

Your teachers this year are Mrs Russell (4MR) and Mrs Carney (4KC).

Mrs Russell, Mrs Carney, Mrs Anderson, Mrs Goulding, Mrs Aamir, Miss Spizer and Mrs Lee welcome you to the Year 4 page.

Mrs Anderson, Mrs Goulding and Mrs Aamir support children in the Year 4 classes. Mrs Anderson also teaches Art in both Year 4 classes, which is alternated with Mrs Lee who teaches French. This will happen on Thursday mornings. Miss Spizer teaches 4MR ICT 0n alternate Wednesday mornings.

During the children’s time in Year 4, they will be given the opportunity to take part in many challenging, engaging, exciting lessons and activities, ranging from sports and drama to working as part of a school community.

Our main topics, which we look forward to in the first term, are Light and Shadow, The Americas and Roman Britain.

During the Spring term, our main topics will be the Egyptians, States of Matter, Electricity and Climate and the Weather.

During our Science and Geography topics, the children will take part in a range of practical activities to extend their learning. These include designing and making a torch and our residential visit to Cranedale.

In the final term, our topics will be Living Things, Teeth and Digestion, Rivers and The Water Cycle. Some of the activities that support these topics will include investigations into how quickly chocolate melts and understanding about the processes involved in passing a law at the Houses of Parliament.
