What a first week back in 4A!

We have started our new writing topic centred around openings. We watched a spooky video that helped kickstart our imaginations. We have spent this week learning the model text as well as magpie some of its great features. In Maths, we have been looking at multiples of 3, 6 and 9. All our hard work on TTrockstars has really proved helpful as our recall of these facts is going from strength to strength. 

In History, we started by looking at the Romans impact on Britain by first looking at the country before they invaded. We learnt about Celtic tribes and their way of life. We took part in a retrieval relay and we were all able to recall lots of facts about the Celts. During our Art session, we learnt about gestural drawings. We found out some top tips such as just using our arm and not our wrist to sketch to create drawings that looked like they were moving. We sketched a couple of gestural drawings of Roman soldiers ready to create our own tapestry in the coming weeks.

Our TTrockstar of the week is Seb and our Lexia legend is Ayra. Book club this week was hosted by Dennis and Nevaeh. They chose ‘Bunny vs Monkey’ by Jamie Smarts and ‘Sparks’ by Ian Boothby.
