Year 4 have been working hard this week to represent maths stories using gestures, pictures and expressions.
Help at home: Challenge your child to teach you how to use the gestures and pictures we use in our Mastering Number sessions.

Year 4’s Book Club
This week’s book club in Year 4 has been a busy one! There was much excitement exploring Mrs Poole’s recommended reads and the “Mystery books” were snapped up within minutes. We are looking forward to some new titles entering our shelves with some of our budding authors creating their own books for other children to borrow.
Help at home: Sharing a book with your child is the best way to develop reading fluency and a love of reading. Do let us know what you have reading using the Reading Records and if you need help finding a book to get lost in do come and see me at drop off / pick up for a recommendation.
Philosophy Friday: Class rewards
Year 4 have really enjoyed making our class reward system this week. They made the rules, chose the prizes and designed the recording system. We used our debating skills in our Philosophy Friday session to consider what we should do if we won two prizes from the Golden Ticket draw.
After listening to the arguments presented by our classmates, we recorded our final opinion and positioned ourselves on a scale to represent our thoughts. You can see there was quite a wide variety of opinions!
