Friday 6th March

Welcome back to year fours blog! 

What an extra busy week this week! 

 

In writing, the children have been looking at similes and metaphors. A simile is where you compare two things with using the words 'as' or 'like'. A metaphor is where you say something is something else! Very tricky and I was blown away with the children's examples. https://wordwall.net/resource/28006922/similes-metaphors

 

In maths, the children have been looking at squared numbers, x and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000 and at related facts to their times table. So for example... 3 x 8 = 24  30 x 8 = 240 and 300 x 8 = 2400   Challenging stuff ey?!

 

This week, we finished our class novel. The Polar Bear Explorers' Club. We wrote a detailed book review about this novel in reading. We are already looking forward to our next one. 

 

And FINALLY, Thursday was World Book Day. How lovely to celebrate all things books. Have a look at the super costumes below. 

 

Have a fantastic weekend and see you all Monday morning.
