Nightingales

Nightingales are a Year Four class and the teacher is Miss Foster supported by Mrs Hayward, Mrs Weatherhead, Mrs Cook and Mrs Tattersdale.

Our main topics for this year include:

Awesome Egyptians where we will find out about Howard Carter, the gifts of the Nile and much more.

Rumble in the Jungle where we will explore the rainforest and examine the history of the Mayans. 

Victorian Rawdon where we will study the history of our local area.

 

Each topic includes either a class visit or a workshop to excite and engage the children, as well as to enhance the learning experience.

 

 

Swimming and outdoor P.E is on Wednesday. Children need to arrive dressed for PE on this day. 

Homework is being given out on Friday this year and needs to be returned on Tuesday mornings with house points awarded for effort and accuracy. Children are expected to access times table rockstars 3x per week at home. 

Please keep practising your spellings and time tables (plus the linked division facts), as it will support your learning in school.

This year, all Years Four children will take part in a national times table test which involves knowing all their times tables up to 12x12.

What a busy last week of term we have had! In our English lessons, we have read The Chocolate Tree which has helped us to understand how important chocolate was to the Mayans. We have written a setting description of the paradise experienced by one of the Mayan gods. 
On Wednesday, our class assembly ran smoothly and I'm so proud of every child for learning their lines and delivering them clearly. We hope you parents and carers enjoyed the performance!

This week we have made a great start to learning all about the Mayans. We debated what it was that made them so successful and designed Mayan headdresses. We also wrote our descriptions inspired by the book The Window and spent time guessing what our friends had written about based on their descriptions. 

We have a busy week next week!

We have had a super world book day! I loved all of the children’s costumes and hearing about their favourite books. We also read the book Flotsam and created portraits of characters we thought could be in the story.

We also created our final collages! We are excited to show these off in our class assembly in a couple of weeks.

Next week:

Tuesday: homework due in, slipper treat day! For achieving our class target, we have decided to wear slippers in the classroom. Please come to school in normal shoes, bringing your slippers in a separate bag. We will wear them in the classroom and change back to normal shoes at break and lunch time.

Wednesday: swimming and PE, parents evening.

Thursday: trip to synagogue - contrary to previous info, we now know children DO NOT need to bring a scarf, just normal school uniform. Please bring a packed lunch to be eaten when we get back to school.

We had Creature Ark in to visit us on Monday to discuss and show us different animals that might be found in a rainforest. We met, held and stroked a whole menagerie of creatures including snakes, a blue-tongued skink, Guinea pigs, a toad, hissing cockroaches and a tarantula. We learnt a lot about how the animals are adapted to their habitats and the characteristics of the different species. Everyone was extremely brave! 

Happy last day - hope everyone has a lovely, safe half term!
