CLASS 4 SPRING TERM 2020
Please see the BBC Bitesize page for daily lessons https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize'
Hi Class 4,
The Easter holiday has finished and today is the beginning of the Summer Term. It feels strange that we are not altogether in class.
Hope you are all keeping well and that you have been making the most of the lovely weather whilst staying at home. Did any of you beat my 14 items in a matchbox? I expect some of you managed more than 20!
Please remember any ideas and activities on the website are there for you to use. I know bbc.bitesize are putting up lessons now, so take a look.
There is some work for you going on the class 4 page later today: 100 word summary, some punctuation and grammar, arithmetic, reasoning and some anagrams. Good luck!
Another useful website to look at is stem.org.uk, which offers a variety of resources in the section ‘Support for Families’.
You might also look at beinternetawesome.withgoogle.com which has an interactive game called Interland, which covers many aspects of internet safety.
Also, you have your homework or SATs workouts. So, this week, please complete the next test in each one.
Stay safe and be kind to each other.
Mrs. Carroll

Hi Class 4,
Hope you and your families are safe and well.
It seems like ages ago, in class one afternoon, that I asked you what you knew about Maundy Thursday. From the lack of hands, I decided the answer was, “not a lot!”
It’s Maundy Thursday on the 9th April this year. What can you find out and record to share with your classmates? Perhaps you could create a presentation which includes each key date throughout Lent and Easter.
Be kind to one another.

Hi Class 4,
All these are from my garden - only petals or one flower head picked from a plant.
It was a grape hyacinth - I’ve checked!
14 items in a small matchbox. Perhaps you could photograph yours.
Good luck.

Hi Class 4,
Chester Zoo have a virtual open day - may see some of your animal favourites from last year’s trip.
Also #nature detectives (linked to woodlandtrust) have an idea for a matchbox scavenger hunt - how many nature related items can you fit in yours - you could list them or sketch and label the contents carefully. You could try the same idea on an indoor theme on a rainy day.
I wonder if any of you have written and posted your letters to stay in touch with people you are not able to visit. By now, you might have received a reply!
Keep well, stay safe.
Mrs Carroll.
Hello Class 4,
So, we have nearly reached the Easter holiday. Hope you’ve been keeping busy.
In addition to the twinkl links, here are some other activities to check out. You will see April’s reading activity - if you are unable to print a copy off, then use a similar format on paper.
If you enjoy using technology, with adult permission, you could try some apps. CodyCross is a crossword style app with varied clues and WordWipe is a word search app encouraging you to scan and track. Scrabble and Hangman are also fun to play and good ways to develop and extend your spelling and vocabulary.
Keep looking on transum.org and nrich for maths challenges. You might also look at ‘ math playground’ for a variety of interactive games at different levels. Chess, dominoes, cards and games like Battleships all practise maths skills too.
For more practical activities, there are lots of ‘wildlife’ related things to do. If you are spending more time in your garden or exercising in the local area, why not download a monthly spotter sheet? These are available from many websites including bsbi.org/Herbology-hunt. There are activities for children of different ages on wildlife trusts.org/kids-and-families and some of these might appeal to your younger brothers and sisters. Also, at woodland trust.org.uk there are nature activities to participate in. (I had to put ‘self isolation’ in the search bar to find them!)
As well as eating plenty of Easter eggs during the holiday, why not do some planting? Both flowers and vegetables can be productive. The insects will benefit and hopefully you will too, when you have fresh vegetables to eat or flowers to enjoy. On the wildaboutgardens.org.uk site, there are factsheets about creating a butterfly box or border - a good time of year to do this.
A message for year 6. I have given the ‘hoodie’ orders to Mrs. Lloyd. She will send them to the online company and we will wait to hear from them to see if they are still producing merchandise.
Once again, stay safe and well and be kind to each other.

Hello Class 4,
It's Thursday and nearly the end of your first week with no school. Hope you're all well.
At school we have completed the 30 minute workout on YouTube by Joe Wicks each morning...so even if you're not in touch with all your friends, you could all be doing this 'together' wherever you are!
Some families have written letters to people they are not able to see. Great idea to use your English skills and then you could walk to the post box during your daily exercise!
The RSPB have morning bird watching activities - there are some great bird drawings and paintings being posted too.
Keep safe and try to be kind and helpful at home.
