The children in Class 4 have had a wonderful day. They have all enjoyed being together and catching up with news about their holiday adventures.
Today, the children were introduced to our new ‘Novel Study’ which will be ‘Charlotte’s Web’. We read a section from Chapter One and the children were asked to discuss the events and give their thoughts and feelings about what had happened and how it had made them feel. The children worked really hard to talk to each other and keep on task to record their ideas by writing them in thought bubbles.
We spent time exploring place value in Maths. Children had to identify the value of different digits in 3 and 4-digit numbers. We used number cards to make a range of numbers and the children had to write the values of the digit in place value grids. We then found the biggest and smallest numbers and also put all of the numbers in order from biggest to smallest.
This afternoon, we talked about the qualities of a person in Class 4 and what we would like to continue to grow as. For example, the children suggested that they wanted to continue to grow as writers, historians, artists, mathematicians, Christians, good friends, actors and many more! The children used Microsoft Publisher to create signs for a display board to remind us of what we are working hard to be.
The Class 4 newsletter has been placed in the Class 4 noticeboard and it will be uploaded onto here tomorrow.
Well done Class 4 – it was a great day!
