Welcome to Class 4

Hello and welcome back to another year at Abbott! I hope everyone has had a lovely, relaxing summer break and are refreshed and ready for an exciting year ahead.

We have some brilliant topics to start our year off! In Literacy, we will be travelling back in time to the days of the Roman Empire as we read ‘Escape from Pompeii’ by Christina Balit. We will use the book to develop our inference skills and produce a range of texts. We will also be looking at the Romans in History too, finding out how the arrival of the Romans changed Britain. In Maths, we will begin by looking at place value in numbers beyond 1000 and will then move on to calculation methods. For more information about what we will be learning about this term please see the curriculum overview below.

I am very much looking forward to the year ahead and I am excited to get to know you all. If you have any questions or queries, please don’t hesitate to come and speak to me or another member of the Year 4 team.
