Year 4 – Ithaca and Samos

This week in numeracy we have been looking at equivalent fractions, as well as comparing and ordering them. We will also be looking at drawing bar charts, and asking and answering questions on what we have found.

In literacy we have been making our stories even better by adding adverbial phrases, fronted adverbials and subordinate clauses. We are still reading the Butterfly Lion and enjoying it very much.

Our spellings for this week are…

forgetting

forgotten

beginning

beginner

preferred

gardening

gardener

limiting

limited

limitation

Our writing task for this week is…

Interview your hero. What questions could you ask them? What information do you want to find out about them? How did they start out? Where are they from? Who was their hero? What was their childhood like? Make it exciting!
