Year 4

Welcome back Ithaca and Cyprus!

This week we have been using different mental strategies to solve addition and subtraction calculations. We will also be looking at classifying shapes, in particular triangles.

In Literacy we have been writing our own stories that raise issues or dilemmas. We have been finding exciting words we can use, such as adverbs and adjectives.

Our spellings for this week are…

do not

don’t

haven’t

you’ll

you will

I’d

you’ve

won’t

quarter

regular

Remember to change your books as soon as you have read them, and to practise your times tables!

Your writing task this week: This week we would like you to be journalists and write a newspaper report on Penelope the school chicken escaping. Who might have witnessed the escape? What would your headline be? Who could you interview? Make it exciting!
