Term 1 Highlights
Maths
In Maths, we have learnt about Place Value. We have learnt that place value is very important as it helps us solve a range of calculations. We used counters, dienes and number lines to explore the value of numbers up to 4 digits.
English
For the first 2 weeks, we learnt what is special about our school and, in pairs, created leaflets about our school.
In term 1, we read ‘Journey’ by Aaron Becker. To engage us in our book we were given different objects relating to the story and had to create our own story around that object. After reading ‘Journey’ we wrote stories about Lucy (then main character in the book) and the adventures she had with her magical pen. We then created a landscape setting for our own tale of journey inspired by ‘Journey’ and wrote our own tale of journey inspired by the main character Lucy.
Enquiry
At the start of term 1, Year 4 looked at what makes our school safe and special. We reminded ourselves about everything that makes Bannerman Road special such as: the school values and gems, trips and experiences and lesson such as forest school. We created murals to represent what makes Bannerman special to us.
In our second topic we have been answering the question ‘How does sound make music?’, where we have been musicians, scientists and engineers. Throughout our journey, we have learnt about the history of music and listened to several genres, how we hear sounds and how sound travels. We have investigated: a range of instruments; how pitch is changed on an instrument; and how we can change the volume of a sound or make it travel further. We were able to design and make our own instruments using all our knowledge and skills. The final tasks we have are to write instructions for how to make our very own instrument then create some music with them.
Best Wishes
Mrs Davidson/Mrs Gadd and Miss Martin
