PE - Tuesdays with Morris and Wednesdays with Class Teacher
Homework - Due in on the 16.07.25
Maths:
This week, we refined our fraction skills by adding and subtracting fractions. We understood that when the numerator and the denominators are equal, the fraction is equal to one whole. When subtracting fractions from a whole, we knew we needed to convert the whole to a fraction. For example, 1 - 4 / 5, the whole would become 5 /5.
English:
This week in English we continued to immerse ourselves into our new text ‘The Great Cave’. We had lots of fun unpacking the characters' personalities and how they were so different from one another. We then looked closely into hidden messages the writer left behind in some passages and we discussed how characters may be feeling and why this may be. We even did some hot seating and acted like some of the characters in the story!
PSHE:
This week, we discussed how we can keep safe whilst we are out and about! As a class we spoke about how there are some rules we can follow to stay safe whilst we are outside such as being safe when crossing roads, making sure we follow safety rules such as the traffic lights etc. As a class we discussed why these rules exist and how sometimes people may not follow the rules, especially when they are in a rush or excited to get to a place they need to go to.

National Multiplication Tables Check
The multiplication tables check (MTC) is statutory for all Year 4 pupils in England.
The purpose of the MTC is to determine whether pupils can recall their times tables fluently, which is essential for future success in mathematics. It will help schools to identify pupils who have not yet mastered their times tables, so that additional support can be provided.
The following website is a great tool to help children get used to the layout and timings of the test: https://www.timestables.co.uk/multiplication-tables-check/
