Spring 1

English: 

 

As writers, we will be creating a tri-fold leaflet for the British Museum, on aspects of Anglo- Saxon life.

In order to practice the skills required, we will be researching both Roman and Anglo- Saxon life, identifying relevant text details from information texts, constructing quality topic sentences, using fronted adverbials for when and using text type features (heading, subheading, text boxes, rhetorical questions and diagrams). Check regularly to see some of the fantastic work year 4 will be producing.

 

Sentences which have a fronted adverbial for when: 

 

When I ride my bike, I wear a helmet to stay safe. (Khubaib)

 

Before I went out to play, I ate pasta for my dinner. (Zakariya)

 

After I eat my dinner, I am allowed to eat my dessert. (Abdullah)

 

When I ride my bike, I always make sure that I am safe by checking for cars. (Faiza)

Analysing a range of non-chronological reports.

History:

 

 

 

 

Here are some of the questions we have been exploring in History.

Anglo- Saxon punishments vs modern day British punishments.

Look at the work we have done about different aspects of Anglo-Saxon life.

PSHCE:

 

 

As citizens, we will learn about  the different groups that make up our community and  what living in a community mean.

We will also  learn about diversity: what it means; the benefits of living in a diverse community; about valuing diversity within our community. We will be able to listen and respond respectfully to a wide range of people, including those whose traditions, beliefs and lifestyle are different to our own. Our disciplinary concept focus will be on the community and our substantive  concept focus will be on relationships.

The water cycle

 

The sun heats up the water source, turning it into a gas called water vapour. This process is called evaporation. When the water vapour cools down, it condenses, turning it back into water. This process is called condensation. The water falls down as precipitation (it can be hail, snow, sleet and rain) this then travel across the surface as runoff and ends up in the same or a different water source.

 

By Abdul Haadi.

 


The water cycle:

 

The sun heats up the river. The river gets so hot that it turns into water vapour. Then it turns into clouds. Once the cloud can’t hold any more water it starts to rain. The water cools down in the clouds and turns back into a liquid. This is called condensation. When the clouds are heavy the rain comes down. This is called precipitation. Then the water comes down this is called runoff. Then the leftover rain goes back to the river and then it begins again!

The water cycle:

 

The sun heats up the river. The river gets hot. The sun warms up water (water vapour) This is called evaporation. The water vapour rises and turns into clouds. The water vapour cools down in the clouds and turns back into a liquid. This is called condensation. When the clouds are heavy, the rain comes down. This is called precipitation. The water comes down onto the land. This is called run off. And then goes back into the river.

The water cycle.

 

The continuous cycle.

 

Over 75% of the earth is covered in water. The same water has been here since the beginning of creation. Water never leaves the Earth. It moves around in what is called the water cycle. The water cycle starts with the sun heating up the water, this process is called Evaporation which produces water vapour (is the water heated up which turns into a gas). The water vapour/gas, rises and collects in the sky as clouds. The water vapour cools down and turns back into a liquid, this is called condensation.  When it gets too heavy it comes down as precipitation: rain, snow, hail or sleet. This water then moves across land as runoff. And then it ends up in rivers and streams. It then flows back to sea or lakes and the cycle starts again.

PE 

Dance

In Dance, we will select travelling actions and movements to convey different characters, along varied pathways.  We will also create a sequence conveying a challenge using travel, turn and gesture.  Finally, we will combine all elements, in order to tell a story.

Computing

 

Pupils will be creating a podcast on thier iPad using the theme of cyberbullying, they will cover what cyberbulling is, the different types of cyberbulling and how to report an incident of cyberbully. They will write a script that will be recorded using garageband and edit their recordings adding background music.
