Welcome To Hawkstone Class!
Get ready for an unforgettable adventure in Year 4! This year is bursting with exciting learning, inspiring challenges, and opportunities to shine. Our classroom is a place where curiosity leads the way and every child is supported to grow academically, socially, and personally.
We’ll be diving into fascinating topics across the curriculum. In History, we’ll travel back in time to explore the legacy of the Ancient Greeks, discover what the Romans did for us, and investigate how people lived and ruled in the past. Our journey through time will help us understand how the world has changed and how the past still shapes our lives today. In Geography, we’ll explore the wonders of the Amazon Rainforest, and in Science, we’ll uncover the secrets of the human digestive system and much more!
Maths Focus: Times Tables Matter!
This year, we’re on a mission to master our times tables up to 12 × 12. Quick recall of multiplication facts is essential for success in all areas of maths, and it will prepare us for the Year 4 Multiplication Check in the summer term. We’ll use games, challenges, and creative strategies to make learning tables fun and effective!
A Love of Reading
Reading is at the heart of our learning. Children will enjoy a wide range of texts, from gripping stories to fascinating non-fiction, and will have plenty of opportunities to read, listen, and discuss books that spark imagination and build knowledge. We are also really lucky to have received brand new books for our class library – we can’t wait to open them up!
Exciting Opportunities
Year 4 is packed with memorable experiences! Children will have the chance to take part in an overnight residential visit, where they can try activities like kayaking, high ropes, and team-building games (activities to be confirmed closer to the time). In the spring term, they’ll also take to the stage in our Year 3 and 4 performance, showcasing their creativity and confidence.
