This week in year 4

Year 4 are delighted with the books and wet play activities the cake sale money has bought. They now have their own chess set, card game and play doh for when the weather isn’t good enough to go outside. Reading sessions are much better with brand-new copies of “The Firework Maker’s Daughter” to share, too. We’ve been looking at the similarities between this book and the one we are using for writing inspiration – “Cinnamon”.

We’ve been having a great time thinking about mental health, including safer internet use. The themes of these are “let’s connect” and Want to talk about it?”, so we’ve all been thinking about the benefits of communication in all its forms.

We stretched and breathed like superheroes during a “yoga bugs” session, which is an online site you might want to use yourself as a calming down activity during half-term holiday!

We made paper hats together and then made tweaked them to make them our own.

Have a happy, safe half-term break!
