Year 4 2020 - 2021

Welcome to our Year 4 class page. It has been lovely to have the children back in school and to see how well they have settled, showing true resilience. This half term we will be exploring Ancient Egypt in our topic - Jewels of the Nile. The children will be writing newspaper articles on the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb and exploring what life was like for an ancient Egyptian.
Willow is still an important member of our class and a way to share your worries!
Y4 Timestables practice pages
To help with practicing their timestables, these 2 websites are set up in a very similar way to the actual test. Once your child is confident you always try decreasing the time you give them - or challenge them yourself to see who is the fastest! There is a parent information sheet uploaded below on how and why the test is administrated.
