"You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have." Maya Angelou (African American Poet and civil rights activist)
Welcome to Year 4
Our main topic for this term is I love the way we move. We will explore this topic through Science, Literacy (where we will look at a book called, ‘Gut Garden – A Journey into the Wonderful World of your Microbiome’), and our Guided Reading, where we will look at a book called, ‘Jake's Bones’. The children will be exploring the key role of the skeleton through enquiry based learning.
Our Big ideas this term are about acceptance and mutual respect and our Big Question this term is What does mutual respect look like? We will be asking questions such as:
- What does mutual respect look like?
- Why is it important to accept others and different
situations? - How can we be more accepting?
- Are there different ways to show mutual respect?
