The children were given a 4 seasons tree calendar to create and represent trees that would show the 4 seasons of 2026. The children used watercolour paints and devised their own techniques to artistically decorate them. They look absolutely amazing.

We have had a visitor with gifts. The children were so excited to join in with Christmas celebrations and very thankful for the gifts from Santa. Merry Christmas everyone.

Our class elf apparently set the class a mission, a blank piece of paper was left in a envelope in the class for the children. The children said this had ‘invisible ink’ on that only children could read and gave the children a mission to do. The children said they had to get me to say 3 words… Christmas tree, elf and Santa. After completing the mission the elf left a ‘mission complete’ note and a chocolate for everyone. The children worked amazingly as a class to read the let

The children have been working incredibly hard to write poetry stanzas using metaphors. They chose a Christmas theme and used feelings, adjectives, animals and places to write metaphors. Some children performed some of their poetry and wow….. look at the actions to support their performance! Y4 you are a group of magical elves gliding over the glossy ice on sharp skates through your learning.

The year 4 children enjoyed sitting round the fire and tasted some toffee apples cooked on the fire pit.

Very lucky to have Jack and the Beanstalk pantomime to start off the festivities 🧑‍🎄🎄

Buddy the elf has come to join Y4, upon his arrival he decided to try and stop all learning….. but we have far too much fun while we are learning, so the children decided the paper wouldn’t stop us!

The children were excited to join the components to make working circuits, I think we have some budding electricians among the class. We think its beginning to look a lot like Christmas….. maybe we could build our own Christmas tree lights!

Today the children explored circuits using components, the children displayed high levels of resilience to get their bulbs working. Some children linked more components into their circuits to explore what would happen and how things work. The buzz in the classroom was electrifying!

25 minute challenge…. The children took on the 25 minute challenge, voting to take part in 25 minutes of expressing myself! The children chose their favorite subjects to express themselves. Some children chose dance, some art, some maths and what fun we had.

The children had an amazing time at the Arc cinema at the showcase of their very own animation creations. The children were a credit to the school and had lots of fun (and a little bit of popcorn). Amazing memories made! 🎥🍿🚌

As part of our year 4 science unit ‘Electricity’ we have been identifying, grouping and classifying electrical and non-electrical items, using our teamwork skills.

After the Remembrance Day assembly, the children wanted to mark their respect by drawing posters, these have been displayed in out classroom window. We will be holding 2 minutes silence on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. Lest we forget.

As part of our Y4 topic this term, the children have looked at Ancient Egyptians and now we are exploring the Stone Age, Iron Age and Bronze Age. The children have worked collaboratively to create timelines of these periods in history. Great work Kingfishers!

In art we have been focusing on drawing oranges, we have looked at size, proportion, hatching, stippling and 3D to give a real life look to our drawings. Just look at the amazing work of one of our children…

We have published our final non chronological reports all about Ancient Egypt. They are a great read, filled with great facts! Well done Year 4.

What an amazing day of fun and interactive learning we have had at Wentworth Woodhouse today! The children have been amazing and learnt lot’s of new facts about nature and our natural world. Ask them to share their newly learnt facts with you.
