Hello Merlins and Skylarks,

Here is Year 4’s home learning for Wednesday 6th January. Please find your work for today below.

Additionally, if you login to Teams, you will find a video from your class teacher saying hello and introducing some of the tasks for the day.

Any activities that you need to carry out are attached to this blog and as from next week you will also find them in the assignment section of Teams.

There is a class meeting on Teams every afternoon at 2pm so that we can all say hello to each other and discuss the learning that we have done. This is the Teams link so you can meet us there today:

If you have any problems logging in, then please let us know as soon as possible so we can help.

We know that all family circumstances are different and that it can be a really challenging time but ideally we would like you to email us at least one piece of work that you have done by the end of this week. The class email addresses are below. Your class teacher or teaching assistant will look at your work and give you some feedback by the start of next week.

If you have any problems, questions or concerns then please feel free to get in touch with us at the following email addresses:

English

We are using Oak Academy for your English learning this week, looking at narrative writing based on The Borrowers by Mary Norton.

Because you have all looked at lesson 1, today we will be completing lesson 3: To revise our knowledge of word class.

Reading

This is the most important thing that you do today. You should try and read for 15-20 minutes every day. Find a book that you think you'll enjoy (an old favourite, a new Christmas present or one that you've been meaning to read for ages but not got round to picking up), find somewhere comfortable and sit back and enjoy!

You could do any of the following types of reading:

- Read by yourself

- Read aloud to an adult, a sibling or even a pet

- Ask an adult to read to you.

Art

· Your art work today will link with your English work on The Borrowers by Mary Norton. The Borrowers are a family of tiny people who live secretly in the walls and floors of an English house and "borrow" from the big people in order to survive.

·

· We would like you to design and sketch your own Borrower family – create your characters, their home and everyday items they might use.

For example, your character could sit on a cotton reel, bath in a cup or sleep in a match box.

Do you have time to learn even more? Here are some links to useful websites you could use:

· BBC Bitesize – Begin by clicking this link and then selecting your year group. Choose which subject you would like to learn more about. There are great videos, quizzes and activities for you to do!

· Top Marks – This is a great website to find interactive games. You can choose your age group and subject and then find fun games to play.

· Nrich – This is a great website to use for Maths. It provides activities and games which promote problem solving and fluency. Just click the link and then choose which area of Maths you are learning about at the moment.

· Timestable rockstars – A great way to practise your times tables.
