MESSAGE FROM OUR YEAR 4 TEACHERS
Dear Parents,
Wow what a week this has been! It will be one that we remember for the rest of our lives. Our blended online learning is all new to us but we need to look at it as something new and exciting to try. We all know it is the best solution for this situation and we can look to the positives of spending quality time with the ones we love and sharing in their learning. We must commend you all on some great achievements so far.
This week has been a new way of learning for everyone. The children have really enjoyed the Zoom Meetings which have been a great way for them to connect with their teacher and classmates. Online they have completed a Daily Journal, a Holy Week slideshow presentation, reading and maths. Keep up the great work kids!
Mrs Hill and Mrs McCarron
Year 4 have been writing responses each day to the novel they are reading. Here is one example from Pania Ackinclose
Write a letter to a character from the text you are reading. Let them know what you like about their character and what you would like them to do next in the story.
Dear George
I like that you are stubborn and that you like to be treated as a boy. You also love dogs and you love doing things outside. I would love for you to convince your dad enough so he will let, you, Julian, Dick and Anne look after each other so you can solve another mystery.
From Pania
REFLECTION ON HOLY WEEK- PIPER VIETCH
Holy week is important to me because it reminds me about God’s sacrifice of his son. Many Christians celebrate Holy week to commemorate the final days of Jesus - in our family it is a time to be together and be grateful for my family.
Easter Sunday by Charli Boyce 4M
On Easter Sunday Mary went to visit the cave where Jesus was buried. When she arrived the cave boulder was removed. Mary was bewildered and she entered the cave. As she entered an angel appeared and told her ‘’don’t be afraid’’. The angel explained that Jesus had risen and asked her to spread the good news. Mary was filled with excitement so she did as the angel asked. Some of the people believed her and others were sceptical.
