Rainforest vocabulary.

Year 4 children have done lots of research today to build vocabulary banks ready for writing. 

6, 6, 6!

4T used counters to build our understanding of groups of 6 (6 X tables) today. The children are very quickly remembering facts!

Roman coins.

The Roman Empire may have been built on  conflict but it worked on money. Whether a sestertius or denarius, every Roman needed some coins.

Year 4 were creating their own coins using themselves to portray the head of the Emperor.

Romans Vs Celts!

A huge welcome to our new Year 4! This year is going to be brilliant!. To kick off our new topic I AM WARRIOR we took Y4 to the park and drilled them as Roman soldiers. Marching, launching javelins and withstanding attacks by the fearsome Celtic warbands. The children took the role of both Celt and Roman to experience what it was like to march through a forest and suddenly be attacked.

No Romans or celts were hurt in the process.

4AR Beach Trip

4AR have had a lovely day at the beach today. 

Should she or shouldn't she?

Today we were debating whether Granny should tell Ben that she is an international jewel thief. Our class book is Gangsta Granny. Below the children are taking part in a Conscience Alley to try and convince each other to change their opinion.

Fit2Go

On Friday we had Anthony in to continue our work on healthy living and healthy bodies. This week Year 4 did LOTS of circuit training (with lots of water breaks). After that they checked their pulses to see how exercise affected them.
