This term has really flown by, as mentioned in the previous Year 4 blog it has been such a pleasure having the whole class back in the classroom.

This week the children enjoyed a netball competition which was won by the ‘Rapid Reds’ team. The children have really enjoyed learning the key skills in netball under the tutelage of Mrs Corlett. The children demonstrated their knowledge of the game by helping to umpire a few of the games in the tournament. It has been a very enjoyable experience learning to play the sport as well as witnessing the children show their competitive nature on the sports field.

In mathematics, Year 4 have finished the decimal topic by completing their end of block tests. The results within the class, have shown that the children have a real grasp of the topic but to ensure that this knowledge is secure we will spend the remaining week consolidating the learning that has taken place. There will be a focus on word base problem-solving questions to ensure that children are confidently reading, understanding, choosing the appropriate method, solving, answering and finally checking their answer.
