Year 4 Wednesday 1st April

Good Morning Year 4

Hope you are all well and ready to do some learning. We loved looking at your front covers – you are continuing to amaze us with your creativity. Don’t forget to send us pictures of your amazing work when you can; it puts a smile on our faces to see how much effort you are putting into the tasks we are setting.

Today, in your topic work, you will be finding out about some unusual mythical creatures and we look forward to hearing what you have found out.  We will also have a get together on TTRockstars in Ziggodome in Arena – we will try 11am this week.

Have a good day and let us know how you get on.

Mrs Tunnicliffe, Miss Goddard, Miss Hardy and Mrs Happy

Helpful Reminders

Don’t forget you can email us on year4@stmarksce.org.uk. We would love to hear from you if you have a question, need a password, need some help, want to show us your work or even just say hello! Please get your grown up’s permission before you email us. We look forward to hearing from you.

Presentation – Please remember to do your very best work. Handwriting and presentation are as important at home as they are in school. You can complete your work in a book or if you need lined or squared paper you can get it here.

Note for parents: Hopefully your children will enjoy working through these activities and can do independently. We completely understand it may be difficult to complete all these tasks due to other family commitments or you are working from home, so please do not worry; complete what you can with your child.

English – Finish re-writing the Gruffalo

Yesterday, you re-wrote the descriptions of the Gruffalo but based these on the description of your Mythical Creature instead.

There is one more part of the book that we would like you to re-write and that is the part where the mouse meets the woodland animals and tells them where he’s meeting the Gruffalo and what he likes to eat!

You will need to watch the Youtube teaching video below which teaches you how to do this. The attached documents will help you to finish re-writing the Gruffalo. Once this part is done, it is up to you how you would like to publish your story – you can edit the story on a computer like Miss Goddard did or write it by hand in your best handwriting. It would be great to see you attach your writing to your front covers and have a finished book. You could even read this book to your siblings!

Topic – Research mythical creatures 

Today’s topic is linked to ‘real-life’ mythical creatures or cryptids – open the document below for your task.
