Welcome parents and carers of Year 4,
Thank you so much for persevering through this tricky year. We'll leave all the resources and links from the 'lockdown' period here on the website for you to continue to access over the summer period. All the previous lists from Spelling Shed should still be available (plus a new feature where your child can set there own challenges. Just go to the challenge section). There are also some pre-scheduled TTRockstars Battles that will continue each week over the summer period.
If you find your child is struggling to access the material on this page, please don't hesitate to look at the suggested materials on prior year groups' pages.
Here is a link to the BBC bitesize daily lessons for Y4.
Here is a link to the Oak Academy lessons for Y4.
Thank you for your hard work, support and understanding in these uncertain times.
All the best and enjoy the summer 'break',
Year 4 staff

Previous Topics:
Sands of Time
Our previous topic was focused on ancient Egypt. Even though the topic has come to an end, there is still a wealth of resources out there which you can use to expand your knowledge about it. If you are interested - keep learning!
Here are some links to websites:
Ducksters: ancient Egypt for Kids. This website has so much information that you'll be a full blown Egyptologist if you read it all carefully! The Ducksters site is not only full of history-themed information (Romans, Greeks etc), it also has a wide range of child-friendly information on science and geography.
Primary Homework Help: Egypt [Again, this website has a vast wealth of resources across the whole curriculum]
The School Run: Ancient Egypt An outstanding page of key facts.
Furthermore, here is the school run's tremendous list of recommended websites and links about the Egyptians:
Rampaging Romans: Autumn Term
Although this was our autumn topic, you are still welcome to keep delving into this if you have the time and interest. Given that we are still studying the Romans today and their impact on our lives still continues now, you'll never run out of things to discover!
Go to The School Run to find a comprehensive list of links, resources and information to help continue your learning journey!
