Hello and a warm welcome to Lancasters! A lovely mix of curious and passionate young learners from year 4 . We are looking forward to sharing with you all the fantastic learning that takes place in our classroom. In Lancasters, we strive to always do our best whilst having fun along the way, so please keep checking our class web page for news and updates.
Welcome back to our fourth term! In English, children will be delving into the parallel world of 'The Barnabus Project by the Fan Brothers. They will look at specific strategies to describe locations, characters and emotions, whilst learning how to engage the reader with imaginative vocabulary! We will also be looking at the book Kai and the Monkey King by Joe Todd Stanton during a whole class reading sessions.
In Maths, our class will be looking at fractions and how we can identify fractions of an amount in both its abstract form and its pictorial form. As part of fluency sessions, Lancasters will look at time table fact, number bonds and the four operations
In Science we will be examining electrical circuits ! Lessons will be a balance of theoretical discussions and practical experiments. The children will work towards recording their findings in a clear and methodical manner.
In History, children will be investigating how the Shang Dynasty was created, how it effected different people living in ancient China and how it ultimately ended.
