Year 4 - Galapagos Penguins

Article Thumbnail Image

Welcome to our Galapagos Penguins class!

Hi, welcome back to Term 2! This is going to be an exciting term as we become Geographers, investigating earthquakes and volcanoes, look at scientific changes and create some really interesting pieces of writing focused around our topic.  


We also have our visit to Bristol Museum coming up at the end of the month, which is really exciting!


We also have swimming this term on Tuesday morning, so this will form one of our PE slots.  The other will be on WEDNESDAY afternoon this term.


I am sure this will be an adventurous journey through the term and I am looking forward to taking it with you all!

 

Our termly focus will be: 
Term One: We Will Rock You! 
Term Two:  Beneath Our Feet 
Term Three: Echoes of the Past 
Term Four: Water, Water Everywhere! 
Term Five: Where in the World? 
Term Six:  Traders and Raiders 

Topic Web

Timetable

 

We will have Lauran and Crystal supporting within our class during the year.
PE will be on Tuesday and Thursday.  There will be spellings each week and home learning activities set on Purple Mash which will be linked into both maths and our topic area. 
This year is a particularly important year for the class as the times tables assessment takes place in June.  We will be working hard towards this and would love you to help us by allowing the children to access www.timestables.co.uk to support their learning.   

As always, you are welcome to chat with me before or after school or email, via the school office, to arrange an appointment for a more private discussion.
