As school is unfortunately closed, here are some suggestions and links for children to do at home.
English - Can you research your favourite animal and create an information fact file all about it? You will need to include a heading, subheadings, facts and paragraphs. Below is an example:

For Maths activities, practising times tabes on TT Rockstars would be a fantastic use of time!

For other activities, you could research a country and create a poster with information such as :
population size
the climate
local food and drink
landmarks
what language is spoken
national sport
Don't forget to get out in the fresh air if you can, or you could even complete a cosmic yoga or Joe Wicks' workout!

Welcome to 4L!
In 4L we work hard, help each other and have lots of fun together!
Our teacher is Mrs Lymath and our learning support assistant is Mrs Riding
Spellings to learn will be given out on Monday to learn for a spelling test on a Friday so please get practising!
Please bring reading books in every week! Reading with an adult at home and discussing books really helps to develop comprehension skills and is a lovely way to encourage reading for pleasure!
Finally, please bring a water bottle into school each day as it can get quite warm in school, and drinking water will really help you concentrate!
P.E
Our P.E day is on a Tuesday. Please ensure your child comes to school in their school P.E kit on this day.
The School P.E kit is available from Lazer School Wear, St Mary's Road in Garston. This is a red t-shirt with the school badge and school blue shorts. However, your child can also wear a plain red t-shirt and dark blue shorts that are available from most supermarkets. The children can wear any training shoes for P.E.
This is part of our school uniform and must be worn for P.E lessons.
Football kits and other sportswear will not be allowed.
Autumn 2
This term we will be learning about lots of exciting things! We will explore and learn about the topics of area and multiplication and division in maths, as well as writing our own 'outsider story' in English lessons. We will also be writing an information report on polar bears. In Geography, we will be using our geographical skills to compare and learn about different populations in different countries throughout the world. We will also be continuing our exciting Roman topic in History, and learning all about the expansion of the Roman Empire!
Our book this half term is 'Leaf'.
Reading- Steps to read
In year 4 we enjoy daily whole class reading sessions, following steps to read. We are exploring a wide range of poetry and character-based texts such as When The Mountains Roared and The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane.
In addition to our English lessons, we will be doing lots of grammar, handwriting and spelling. Weekly spellings will be given out each Monday to be tested on Friday.
Here are some useful websites to practise your English skills at home:
