Our teacher in Year 4 is Mrs Irshad and she is helped by Mrs Targett and Miss Donnelly.

It has been an exciting start to Year 4 and we are looking forward to teaching you this next year and hope you will enjoy your time in Year 4.

Some work will be challenging, but it’s lots of fun too!

Autumn Term 

We have had a lovely start to the year in year 4!

We spent the first week back thinking about diversity and how, at Whittlefield, all are welcome here. We read a beautiful book by the same name and created pieces of artwork based on flags of the world and learned how to say “Welcome” in different languages. The children wrote about themselves, their families and also their hopes and dreams and what makes them unique. We also spent time learning about each other’s family trees and looking at old family photos.

In English, we have been learning about explanation texts and have had fun creating and dramatising our own machines (e.g The Bedroom Tidying Machine).

In computing, we have been learning all about how to be safe online. We have looked at different scenarios and thought about what we could do to keep ourselves safe.

We have started our history topic on ancient civilisations, our geography topic on mega cities and also our science topic on animals, plants and habitats and we are looking forward to learning more!
