This week in Class 4.

Happy Friday!
We have had a fantastic week in Class 4. We have written instructions on how to brush our teeth in science, learnt about the mummification process in history and had the chance to properly try out our brass instruments in music! Hopefully the children will be able to share what they have learnt in brass this week (sorry!!).
A note on photographs - I currently don't have a class ipod, so I am unable to take many photographs at the moment to share on the blog. Once I have sorted this out, I will upload some photographs of the antics we get up to in Year 4.
The homework this week is as follows:
1.) IXL Maths C.1 and C.2 on addition.
2.) IXL English D.1 and D.2 on verbs.
The spellings for this week are:
Adventure
Capture
Capturing
Mixture
Picture
Pictured
Puncture
Puncturing
I have uploaded these onto Spelling Shed which the children can log into through the login details in their planner. On Spelling Shed they can practice their spellings through a series of games. This IS NOT compulsory but may be an added incentive for the children to practise their spellings.
Have a great weekend!

Welcome to Year 4

Hello to everyone who has started in Class 4 this September! I apologise that it has taken me until week 3 (!!) to get a blog post sorted, I won't leave it this long again, I promise.
I am really enjoying my new class, they are full of enthusiasm, kindness and they have a great sense of humour! I can't wait to see what they can achieve this year.
A quick note about me - I am very forgetful! My last class were well aware of this and didn't hesitate to remind me when I forgot to hand out letters. Please encourage your child to be just as forthcoming about reminding me of important information as I clearly need it. Which brings me to my next point - many apologies for not sending out the class photograph form today. Yes, I forgot! They will go out tomorrow!
If you ever need to speak to me, please know my door is always open. Or if I am not immediately available, I will always arrange a time to speak to you. I am often in until after 5, so if you pick your child up from wrap around club and need to speak to me, you can always pop in if I am still in school.
I am looking forward to meeting you all very soon at parents' evening.
Mr. Kershaw
A big thank you from Mrs Matthews!

I just wanted to say a huge 'thank you' to you all for all the wonderful cards and gorgeous gifts you gave me at the end of term; you are all so very very kind. Your lovely sentiments are very much appreciated too.
I will certainly miss all your wonderful support this year!
Thank you

Now we are all back from Cliffe House, I just wanted to take the opportunity to say how fantastic all the children were. They were a credit to our school, they behaved well and they were some of the best sleepers I've ever taken on a residential! The progress the children made in teamwork and communication skills really shone through and they developed their geography skills through our river walk. Mrs Lindley, Miss Littler, Mrs Sykes and I were all very impressed with them.
I have done a residential nearly every year of my career and I cannot say enough how fantastic they are for children. It brings out the best in them and allows them to shine at things they haven't necessarily tried before. I hope you can see a difference in your child and understand why I am so passionate about learning outside the classroom!
Here are a selection of photographs from our time at Cliffe House. There are some more on the class gallery.
