Year 4H 2025 - 2026

Welcome to 4H

Spring 2

Wow! We are now in the fourth half term of Year 4! 

During our History topic, “Anglo Saxons and Vikings”, we will be having a visit from a Viking to tell us all about Viking life!

In English, we will be starting off looking at narrative poetry and discovering how the Weeping Willow tree got its name. After that, we will be writing non-chorological reports about the Anglo – Saxons and the Vikings which links with our History topic. To finish, we will move on to exploring mystical stories including a stories about, Mermaids, Selkies and Beowulf, the monster.

In Maths, we be consolidating our learning on fractions and exploring improper fractions, before moving onto decimals.

In Science, Year 4 moves onto living things and their habitats where we will be looking at what all living things have in common. We will then look at what makes living things different and thing how we can compare them using scientific classification groups.

In R.E, this term we will be looking at why Christians call the day Jesus died ‘Good Friday’. We will explore the events of Holy Week leading up to Jesus’ death.

In DT, we will be making Pop Up Story Books for younger children. We will look at many examples and see how creative we can get after practising different pop up mechanisms.

Please remember that all children are still required to bring their swimming kit on Monday morning including a swim suit and towel. PE kits are also required on Tuesdays for 4R and Fridays for 4H.

Thank you for your continued support!

The Year 4 team.
