Spring Term
This term Y3 and Y4 will be inventing and creating as part of our whole school topic:
"We Are Authors".
Our T4W work with be based around the core texts:
'Ada Twist- Scientist' by Andrea Beaty'
'Leonora Bolt- Secret Inventor' by Lucy Brandt
We will also be reading 2 whole school books:
During the term we will be investigating Magnets and Forces and using our skills and knowledge to solve problems and create a game.
We will write and create a picture book in the style of Ada Twist- Scientist, using levers and links that we have investigated in DT sessions.
We will think about Leonora Bolt's ingenious invention and use an explanation model text to write an explanation about an invention we might like to make. During the second half term we will focus some of our Science work on famous Scientists.
In Cedar and Willow classes the Y4s will be focussing much more on their times tables in preparation for Y4 Multiplication Check, later in the year. Hit the Button and Times Tables RockStars are really great websites for practising. Let your child's class teacher know if your child would like their TTRS password (subscription is paid for by school).
