We have gone on really good trips and done incredible topics.Tthis topic is x marks the spot we have had a gromit treasure hunt then we made are own gromits I made a cupcake gromit. This term has been really enjoyable working with Mrs Harris. Sadly she left us near to Christmas. But she went to tell people about us. Miss Thomas planned that we write a letter all about ourselves and Miss Thomas sent our letters to Zambia and we got a reply back from people in Zambia. We also had a Roman soldier come in and show us how to fight like Romans and all the Roman things that Romans did.

FREDERIC AND OLLYS AMAZING BLOG

In year 4 we have enjoyed going to the pantomine because it was funny and because they sang lots of songs. We also enjoyed lerning about the Romans. When we where lerning about the Romans a Senshourian came in to show us what the Roman army is like. He showed us a formation called the tortois. The Roman army where exremly sexest because they thourt that girls where to weak to be in the the army. We look forward to learning about the barbarik Vikings and Robots!

Kerrys and Thomas's awsome blog

This term, we have been learning about maps and how to use them, are topic was based on Wallaces and Gromit and where they lived. In topic we learnt about how to use a key on a map, next we drew maps and made a key. Near the end of term, we did a Gromit hunt around our school, there were 11 Gromits. Kerrys group found 7 Gromits and Thomas's group found 9 Gromits. There are lots of diffrent types of Gromits, here are some exarpoles: Where's Wally Gromit, stawberry Gromit, super Gromit and secret garden Gromit.

In year 4 I have most enjoyed the art projects ecspesially when we put those lantern things on the Christmas tree.I have improved at maths and handwriting.I also liked the school trips that wev`e done in year 4.  

Tako's Tatty Blog

In year 4 I like all the activity's that we
do and all the fun we have. My favourite
activity that I personaly have had was an
all day visit for my class. It was when a Roman
Soldier came and gave us a jolly good visit.
I am realy looking forward to the our robots topic
next term. The reason I am buzzing with excitement
is because, I realy like technology and things like
that. Computing is also something I like,
because it gives me an oportunity to create anything,
design anything and be anything. I love this class
and extremely gratefull and happy to be in
it.
Thank You Reading My Blog.

I absoulutely love year four because of all the fun activities
we do and all the amazing teachers we have like Mrs
Thomas. I also love year four because of all the fun friends I
have and ,because we are taught challenging things but these
challenging things can be  completed but they can't be completed easily.
I am also looking forward to our next two topics we have which
are robots and vikings.I am especially looking forward to vikings,
because  we will be doing cooking in that topic.My absoulut
favourite out of the lot is going to Hddnel  Park.

In year four the things I have ejoyed the most are when the roman soldier came, when he taught us the diffrent formations for battle, the roman day, the roman maths, watching wallace and grommit and  the curse of the were-rabbit and learning about the digestive system.

Hudnull park blog post

At the beginning of term, Maple class went on a residential to Hudnall park.We were lucky enough to do lots of activities including mammal trapping. Nicola was helping us do a most of them.We also did den building , making nature sculptures, a long walk and river dipping. We loved doing all of these activities. In river dipping we measured the river and caught lots of different animals like freshwater shrimps and stickleback fish. Mammal trapping was fun because we got to use Longworth traps (special traps for small animals). On the long walk we saw lots of new and different places. Overall we enjoyed our residential holiday.

Lauren and Madeline's amazing blog post.

On Friday 28th February, Year 4 made beautiful purses out of felt. Everyone made different types of purses out of different felts and buttons.

We have also done Harpendonia work. This included making flags, stamps and creating a national sport. We did the sport with Ella, our PE teacher. The sport was an obstacle race and we enjoyed doing it!

Melanie and Liberty's lovely blog post

This week we have been playing and learning basket- ball in P.E, we have also been writing Viking sagas in literacy. In addition to this our teacher Miss Thomas has been very proud of us because in maths we have learned a new method for finding equivalent fractions. In ten quick questions, on our first attempt we did not do very well but after half an hour of work we were very good at it. We have enjoyed our topic ‘The Vikings!’ because we have got to make lots of different things linked to our topic.

We are very excited about making our purses next Friday.

The half term so far!

This week in year 4 we have been learning about the Vikings in topic.

We have also been learning how to make Viking purses in D&T.

In maths we have been revising how to use and draw bar charts and in literacy we have been writing Viking sagas.

Coming up we have the frightful yet enjoyable speakers cup.

This half term in science our topic is the effects of hot and cold. We did two different experiments related to insulation.

Year 4 are looking forward to seeing their finished designs of the purses that they are making.
