Year 4

Year 4 have been using playing cards, dice, counters and bingo to generate their addition own calculations. 

Children in Year 4 read the story of Theseus and the Minotaur before design their own maze.  The children practised their measurements and cutting skills, as well developing their teamwork skills.

Children used an i-pad to take photographs of themselves as a member of Greek society and then used images to merge themselves into a picture of Ancient Greek monument or landscape.

The Platonic shapes are made up from regular polygons.  Year 4 have been exploring the number of faces, number of edges and number of vertices. 

Children in Year 4 have been discussing their worries and what they could do if something is worrying or upsetting them.  We talked about the importance of telling someone they trust and made talking pegs, just like Billy in the story.
