Summer Term

This half term, we will explore how water is used by humans on planet Earth, and how climate change is affecting access to these resources. We will investigate how access to clean water is not equal and how some countries do not have access. We will look at why water is vital to life on Earth

In Science, we are investigating habitats and the creatures which live in them. We will be looking at the habitats in and around the school grounds and looking at how animals adapt to their particular habitats.

In Guided Reading we will be starting to explore Kensuke's Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo.

Listen To Me Lessons

On Thursday mornings we have Mrs Prest, a teacher from Hampshire Music Service, come in to teach us - over the year we will have learnt to play three different instruments!

This term we are learning to play the ukulele! We will be performing a concert to our parents on Thursday 17th July at 10 a.m. in the school hall. 

In Year 4 we focus on making sure we all know our Times Tables. Don't forget to log in regularly and complete a soundcheck game so that you can keep an eye on your progress and aim for the next certificate level!
