Summer Term message from Mrs Mabe:
Welcome to Year 4,
This Summer Term, we will be starting our History Topic “Ancient Civilisations" with an exciting trip to Bolton Museum. We will also be taking part in Mr Worrell's workshop where we will get the opportunity to handle and study artefacts from the Ancient Egyptians. Remember to dress up as an Ancient Egyptian!
Our exciting learning doesn't stop there, we will be investigating electricity in Science, designing and making 'Moving Mummies' in DT and continuing with learning to play the ukulele in Music!
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! On Monday 2nd June the Multiplication Tables Check will open for all Year 4 children for 2 weeks. This will be completed in school. This means it is more important than ever to be practising your timetables at every opportunity, especially those trickier ones! For more information please see the PowerPoint below.
Please have a look at the 'Knowledge Organisers' and linked below. These contain our key learning for the Summer Term in History, Science, French and Music.
If you have any questions - please do not hesitate to ask - I am here to help!

World Book Day
Posted: Mar 10, 2024 by: year4 teacher (F.Mabe) on: Year 4 Blog
Reading is our superpower! Year 4 had a great day dressed as their favourite book characters for World Book Day. In the morning, we learnt all about the life of Michael Rosen by completing a quiz in teams. We then focussed on one of his poems, 'Words Are Ours' and thought about how words are all around us. We then wrote our own versions using all our favourite words. In the afternoon, we got the opportunity to meet Michael Rosen online and then our parents came into school to join in with our Big Read. Thank you to everyone who made our day so special!
