Year 4 Curriculum Map 2024-25

Week beginning 7th July:

 

In English Cornwall have continued reading our new term book 'Varjak Paw' the children have been reading and planning their own newspaper articles about 'The Vanishings' and investigating the events leading up to this and how each character would have felt.

 

In Maths we have continued our topic of statistics. The children have been looking at different way that data could be collected and presented using different graphs - looking at line graphs.

 

We have also continued our topic in Science, electricity! The children have been investigating programmable devices and where we might see them in school, looking at how they are used and how this would work.

 

In history we have been looking at ancient Egyptian civilisiation, and seeing how this is different or similar to the ancient Sumerian civilisiation. Recapping all of our knowledge about what we have learnt. 

 

The children enjoyed meeting their new teachers, and spent a morning getting to know each other! Looking at their new gate, playground and classroom!

 

Cornwall also loved a very warm but exciting sports day! Great participation and outcomes. We thank all the parents who came to watch and even joined in!

 

Thank you for a great week Cornwall class!

Multiplication Tables


Weekly practise of multiplication tables is vital in supporting mathematical development. Below is a chart of the 36 essential facts to learn. This is especially helpful for children who are almost fluent.

 

Times Tables Rockstars! 

 

To keep practising the multiplication taught in class, and challenging yourself to keep the ones you already know fresh, don’t forget to log into your Times Tables Rockstars account.

Children should bring their Accelerated Reading Book to and from school each day. When they have finished reading, children are asked to complete a quiz before changing their book.
