Year 4
Teacher: Mrs A Sofroniou
Teaching Assistant: Mrs J Card (HLTA)
Current Topic - Term 1
This term, our topic in history will be ‘Let Me Entertain You!’ We will be learning about the history of older toys and also comparing them to modern day toys. Much of our work in English will link to our text called ‘Spy Toys ', by Mark Powers, to tie in with our history of toys. In maths, we will begin by focusing on the place value of numbers up to 10,000 before moving on to formal and written methods for addition and subtraction and multiplication and division. Also, we will be continuing to practise our times tables regularly, as we will draw upon these continually in our everyday maths lessons. The focus for our Art this term is ‘Pop Art’ and we will be exploring the art work of Andy Warhol. We will use paint to create atmosphere and light effects and consider how we can showcase mood. In science, we will be learning about Sound.
