Year 4 

 

 

During our time in Year 4, we are given opportunities to access a wide range of activities, which are usually linked to a particular theme.

 

 

During the autumn term, we get to learn about Ancient Egypt. This includes exploring historical stories from ancient Egypt in literacy, solving Egyptian puzzles in maths and making a sarcophagus in art. We are also lucky enough to have an ‘Ancient Egypt Day’ where we learn about every day life for the Egyptians and much more. Because we learn so much about this topic, we usually like to invite everyone to come to an assembly to share some of our work.

 

 

During the spring term we learn about India; in particular, a little village called Chembakolli. This geography topic provides us with lots of opportunities to be creative in other subjects. It also links with our literacy work about stories from other cultures. In addition we have the chance to explore some stories that raise issues and dilemmas, which gets us thinking about some of the key gospel values too.

 

 

In the summer term we learn all about the Tudors. This links closely with our literacy work, as well as providing us with opportunities to explore Tudor art. Also, our PE lessons during this term include a unit of work on Tudor Dance. In addition to this, we are given the opportunity to go on a school trip to Murton Park. This is great because we all get dressed up and spend a day in the life of a Tudor!
