Welcome to Year 4
Hello fantastic Year 4
This weekend Symi pupils will have to focus on practising their assembly lines, as next Friday it is our performance at school.
There is an English writing task and Maths exercises in your home learning book.
Try to work over the weekend as much as you can but we will carry on with our practice from Monday onwards.
When you start working on your English task think of the Tempo Plan you used in class to inform your plot and to expand your story .
We are looking for interesting events that will engage your reader. Try to use some of the words we have learned in Latin and include some useful historical information if you wish to.
Spelling and times tables test will be next Friday.
Enjoy your weekend !

Hello everyone.
Well done for your fantastic work this week.
For your English this term we would like you to focus on ways that help us making our sentences more interesting to the reader.
Your home learning is about the use of Subordinate clauses.
Why are subordinate clauses important?
Some of the reasons are:
- They add more useful and interesting information to a sentence
- They turn a simple sentence into a complex sentence.
- They establish the time sequence, causality, or a specific example of the idea.
- Add variety to sentence structure, making writing more interesting, engaging, and sophisticated overall.
Next week we will practise further our skills of identifying this type of sentences in the book we are reading in order to inform our writing tasks.
In Maths we strongly suggest you to practise your timetables especially 6,7,8 and 9. We currently work with Adding and Subtracting 4 digit numbers but we will soon be moving to multiplication and division so knowing our timetables is essential.
Please revise your spellings from last week and practise the statutory spellings given with the current home learning. We will be having a spelling test next Friday.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Mrs Tsiama and Miss Molineux
Dear Symi and Ithaca pupils
We hope you are all well and that you are enjoying this half term.
We have set assignments for spelling and Maths on Ed Shed. You will have to use your log in details that you will find in your Yellow Reading Record books. It is important to allocate a time on a daily basis to do this exercises as it is a good way to revise and practise further what we have done in the classroom.
We are looking forward to receiving your Roman Standards and Shields when you come back to the school. This is our first project about our new exciting Topic which is Roman Britain!
Keep on practising your rounding skills in Maths with the worksheets we gave you for home work.
Check your Greek Blog for updates regarding with your Greek Language home learning tasks.
We wish you a restful and creative half term.
Mrs Tsiama and Miss Molyneux
Hi Symi and Ithaca
During this week we discussed about our vocabulary enrichment.
It is very important that you read books at home, both fiction and non- fiction stories on a daily basis.
Remember to bring your Reading Record with comments from your parents so that we will know what do you think about the stories you read and how difficult or easy are these stories for you.
It is very beneficial to discuss with your parents about the stories you read and to let your parents ask you questions about these stories. You can give ideas to them by giving them examples of what we do in the classroom during our daily reading lessons.
This weekend please focus on vocabulary. Find new words in the book that you have taken home to read and write them down on your notebook or a piece of paper.
Then on Monday we will discuss together about the meanings of these words and think about how we can use them in our writing .
From this week we will start learning words with certain prefixes:
Block A: Words beginning with un-
unfriendly, unclear, unemployed, uncertain, unable, unaccepted, unaided, unadmired, unabsorbed.
Please practise these words for your spelling test next week.
You will be given your log in details for ED shed learning platform next week .
Have a lovely weekend.
Mrs Tsiama and Miss Molyneux
