WOW of the Week
Week 2
Week 1
Wow, what a way to start the year! We have come back to Westroyd with excellent learning behaviours and looking impressively smart. We are proud to be Westroyders. We have such an exciting year ahead in Year 4!
This week, we learnt about British Values. We learnt what they mean and the importance of them all. We listed each of the five British Values on our very own handprints and listed how each of the British Values are significant in our own lives.
We also learnt all about the Protected Characteristics. We were able to understand why each protected characteristic is important in order to have a fair society. To help our understanding, we acted out scenarios where each protected characteristic was being discriminated and what we could do to make the situation fair.
In maths, we re-familiarised ourselves with numbers to 1,000 - representing and partitioning them as well as labelling number lines up to 1,000.
Year 4 have enjoyed discovering our new class text for the half term - Hetty Feather by Jacqueline Wilson. We made predictions based on the front cover and the blurb, wondering why there might be circus related images and vocabulary.
