This half term, our topic is "Being Human". Our class text is "The Boy at the Back of the Class", from this book, we will be looking at what it means to be a good friend by showing compassion and understanding.
The world is a very strange place at the moment in the current situation we are in. We will be discussing how this may further be different for many children our own age; particularly focusing on the Children's Refugee Crisis which links to closely with our class text. We will be looking at what being human means to us by identifying and discussing our own personalities and traits in an art form to highlight how unique we all are.

This term we will be travelling around the globe using our world atlases and maps. We will be keen explorers who discover all there is to know about the rivers and seas on the globe and how we can find them using a map.
In phonics we will be looking at important spelling rules such as how to add prefixes and suffixes and securing our understanding of common exception words. We are having a HUGE push on reading this term so please try to read those books as much as possible!
In maths we are looking at division, statistics, shapes and fractions, whilst continuing to have a big drive on our times table.
Most importantly we will be learning to look after our mental health after such a strange time with COVID. We will be having lots of fun, discussions around friendships and learning more about our emotions to ensure we are calm and ready to move into year 3

In our daily phonics sessions we will continue to focus on learning Phase 5 phonemes which will help us to develop our skills in both reading and writing.
In Maths we are working with numbers to 50 and beyond, counting in 2s, 5s and 10s, and finding measurements in length, weight, height and volume
Due to restrictions that have been put in place across the country our learning will look rather different. For those children staying safe at home remote learning can be accessed through Class Dojo and will be updated daily.

In Year 4 this half term, we will be exploring the question "Why is what we eat so important?"
We will explore how our body processes food, write and perform our own food-based poetry and even develop and make our own healthy recipes to persuade other people to eat more healthily. Our class story this half term is James and The Giant Peach, which is another excellent Roald Dahl book. For a full overview of what we intend to learn, have a look at our Topic Web for this half term.
