Year 4
In English we will be reading a story called, ‘Adventure at Sandy Cove’, and using this as inspiration to write our own Finding Tale. We will be investigating a ‘crime scene’ where we will have to use our detective skills and decide on a possible theory that might have taken place using the clues to help us. From this, we will read the story and find out what really happened at Sandy Cove! At the end of the term, we will be writing an persuasive text all about the fictional Sandy Cove, an area of outstanding natural beauty.
In Maths we will be learning how to identify acute, obtuse and right angles in various contexts. We will use this knowledge to classify and identify shapes such as triangles and quadrilaterals. We will link our learning in Geography to Maths when we learn about coordinates and how to plot shapes on to grids. We will also learn how to find the area and perimeter of shapes and explore the 7 and 9 times tables.
In our Science we will be learning all about living things and their habitats. We will sort animals into various groups, such as vertebrates and invertebrates, according to their features. We will use classification keys to sort and identify plants and look at how humans impact the natural world in positive and negative ways.
In History and Geography we will learn about the physical geography of planet Earth including how the planet is split up into hemispheres.
In RE our focus will be on ‘Worship’ and the similarities and differences between how different religions worship.
In Music, on the ukulele, we will learn how to play a triplet pattern and a triplet chord as well as know what quavers and semiquavers are when reading music.
