St John the Baptist Primary School
Autumn Term
We have had a fantastic start to Year 4! In Maths, we have been practicing our times tables and in English we have been writing non-chronological reports about the Vikings and Anglo-Saxons. As part of our theme topic 'Invasion', we had an exciting visitor - A Viking! We learnt all abut Viking battle tactic, Viking games and we dug for artefacts. In Science, we have learnt about the digestive system and how we hear sound. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to the cinema and performing at Snappy Christmas!
Spring Term
The Spring term has been a busy one for our class!
Our theme topic was 'Misty Mountains and Winding Rivers' and we have loved learning about rivers and mountains around the world. We went on a trip to AV Dawson in Middlesbrough which linked well with this topic - we learnt about the history of River Tees as well as the company. In science, we have learnt about grouping and classifying and used classification keys. We have researched Wiliam Morris in DT and sewed a hem. Our VIPERS books for this term have been Krindlekrax and Bad Guys. We have completed Prayer Spaces and looked at why Christians call the day Jesus died Good Friday. In PE, we have done gymnastics, yoga and cricket! We have also enjoyed celebrating World Down Syndrome Day, Autism Day and STEM day! A busy but exciting term and we are ready for the Summer term!
