Spring Term message from Miss Gill:
A warm welcome to Year 4 after the Christmas holidays! We hope you have all had a well deserved rest and are raring to go! The Spring Term is jam packed full of exciting learning. We are beginning with our Geography topic 'Misty Mountain, Winding River'. Our Science topics this term are ''States of Matter' and 'Grouping and Classifying'. We have some exciting experiments so watch out for pictures. To find out even more about what we will be learning and discovering this half term, please have a look at the documents below.
At St Thomas' we LOVE to read, have a look at Year 4's 50 recommended reads below. What will you read next?
Times tables! Times tables! Times tables! In June, all Year 4 children will have to complete the Multiplication Tables Check. This means it is more important than ever to be practising your timetables at every opportunity. Whether it is reciting them in the car or practising on Times Tables Rockstars (Garage) for 3 minutes per day. We will also be learning our times tables in class. For more information please see the PowerPoint below.
Please have a look at our 'Knowledge Organisers' linked below. These contain our key learning for Spring in Geography, Science, French, DT, Music and PSHE
If you have any questions - please do not hesitate to ask - I am happy to help!

Atmospheric Moon Art in the Gallery
Posted: Feb 15, 2024 by: L Walton (L.Walton) on: Year 4 Blog
Our amazing artwork has been chosen to be on display in the Lytham Heritage Art display during February. This work was inspired by our Moon Week and involved us looking closely at the moon and using our painting skills to create an atmospheric image. Effie was chosen as a prize winner - for the second year in a row - well done!!
