Year 4 newsletter

 Year 4 have had an interesting week with home learning! We didn’t think we would be having a week off but we all worked so hard to produce some excellent work! 

We began a new unit in writing, working on producing an information leaflet on Antarctica. Each day, we focused on writing about a different area… location, animals, history and glow all warming. The children all worked so hard and produced some outstanding work! 



Just before we started home learning, Year 4 were studying a poetry unit from Jane Considine. We started off by analysing a poem called ‘The River’ looking at its shape and the components that made up each stanza. We then had the opportunity to write our own ‘The River’ poem. The children really worked on linking the noun used to personify the river and the adjectives to describe it. 



Today, we have begun a new unit based on balanced arguments looking at the for and against opinions to whether TV is good for children. We produced a toolkit which we will use when writing our own balanced argument over the next two weeks looking at whether graffiti is art or crime.
