In Year 4 this week we have been looking at place value in our Mathematics lessons. We have looked at increasing and decreasing numbers by 1, 10, 100 and 1 000 over the course of the week. On Friday, we took our learning outdoors, and using chalk, we solved problems relating to place value in a variety of ways including different representations.

Within our Music lessons, the children have been working hard to follow music and to create their own using the glockenspiels and body percussion. The children have worked hard to ensure they are listening to one another carefully, so that when the music is put together, it is in time and goes well together. Well done Year 4; brilliant effort.'

Current Topic

Our topic this Autumn term is The Romans. In class we will consider the Roman period of time and where it fits chronologically into the world. We will explore timelines that are divided into BC and AD to develop our understanding of The Romans and where they fit into the wider history of the world. The children will compare modern life to life in Roman times.

Later on in the term, in our Design Technology (D.T.) lessons, the children will explore Roman money pouches and work towards creating their own Roman money pouch. Similarly, our topic of The Romans will link to work across various subjects across the curriculum such as in reading, writing and mathematics.
