Year 4's Learning Blog
What are Year 4 up to?
1.1
In English, we will be looking at The Jungle Book where we will be writing a character description of Mowgli and a non-chronological report about capybara.
In Maths, the focus is in place value followed by addition and subtraction. We will be exploring representing numbers, partitioning numbers, estimating numbers and rounding. We will be working with 1's, 10's, 100's, 1000's and 10,000's. We will be moving onto adding and subtracting four digit numbers including more thanone exchange.
Throughout the whole year we will be focusing on timetables to prepare for the end of year timetables check that the children need to complete. We will be providing lots of support for this for the children.
In Topic, we are going to look at why rainforests are important to us. We will look at where in the world the rainforests are, what the Amazon rainforest is like, who lives in the rainforest, how the rainforests are changing and then visiting our local area to see how our local woodland is used.
In Science, we are looking at living things and their habitats. We will be grouping living things, such as vertebrae and invertebrates, plants, habitats and seasonal change and human impacts on habitats.
