Welcome to Class 4
We are a Key stage 2 class of Year 4 and 5 children. Our Teacher is Miss Glover and she is helped by Mrs Smith, Mrs Wilde and Miss Wilkins. We are situated in the outside, eco-friendly classroom.
We enjoy learning maths, science and writing the most; we also like going to after school clubs. We think our lessons are really good and this year we want to do lots of topic work.
Hello Class 4,
I really hope you have all had a lovely and much deserved break from home learning during half term. I am sure your parents have enjoyed a week where they don’t need to think about fronted adverbials or fractions!
I am hopeful that this is one of the last weeks that we will need to set ‘home learning’ work and that we will all be able to return to the classroom soon!
Again, I will add the timetable for the activities to complete this week but please don’t feel pressure to do everything or stick to it if it doesn’t work for you.

Have a wonderful week,
Miss Glover
Hello Class 4,

Hello Class 4,
Timetable: Monday 1st February
You have managed another week of home learning, so well done to you all. I know many of you are missing being at school and I am really missing seeing you all there. Maybe this week, you could write to somebody in our class or video call each other to see a familiar face.
For maths this week, we will be looking at tenths and hundredths.
Answers for BIG challenge Friday
Decimals you choose the challenge level- Thursday
Writing decimals as fractions- Y5 Extra challenge- Wednesday
Additional maths- Tuesday and Wednesday
SPaG, will include a variety of activities all about fronted adverbials- you are all familiar with them so you should be able to complete all the SPaG activities independently.
I have to say, I was blown away by how brilliant your newspaper reports were, you manage to write in a very grown up way, which you should all feel incredibly proud of. This week, we will be working on descriptive writing- I hope you enjoy having a little more freedom and show off your own style of writing.
Creative writing- English tasks
Character description word mat
Correct the sentences activity
For the afternoon, I have tried to stick (as best as I can) to our ‘normal’ subjects. Again, I have tried to include video links.
I hope you all have another successful week.
Keep up all your hard work,
Miss Glover
Hello Class 4,
Another week has passed and I am really missing seeing everybody’s smiley faces. I hope that we will all be back at school together soon. But until then, I hope you are all staying safe and looking after your families.
Timetable: Monday 25th January
This week we will be adding and subtracting fractions. You have all made a brilliant start to this topic with your successful work on equivalent fractions and finding fractions of amounts. Y4s you will be focusing on adding and subtracting fractions with the same denominators and Y5s you will be looking at fractions with different denominators.
Tuesday Adding fractions Y5 answers
Wednesday Maths Y4 (with answers)
Wednesday Maths Y5 (with answers)
I will also add some additional resources but please DO NOT feel you have to complete them- they are here as an ‘extra’ for those of you who work through and want more.
Big Challenge for those who want an extra
Pyramid adding fractions- extra work
SPaG, will include a variety of activities all about ‘subordinate clauses’. You were all experts at relative clauses last week, so I have no doubt you will be able to work through these activities independently again.
We will be continuing planning for writing our own newspaper reports, the Oak Academy video focuses on helping you to plan and write a report based on the film ‘Hoodwinked’ (an adaptation of little red riding hood). However, this is not necessarily what you have to write your report about, I know many of you have your own ideas and are keen to base your report using your own imagination. That is absolutely fine, but please don’t feel pressured to.
Support with writing your own report- English
This is to be used if you choose your own topic to write about and need to plan: Newspaper report plan- some of you already completed this last wekk
For the afternoon, I have tried to stick (as best as I can) to our ‘normal’ subjects. Again, I have tried to include video links.
I hope you all have another successful week and have enjoyed playing in the snow today.
Keep up all your hard work,
Miss Glover
Hello Class 4,
I hope you and your families are staying safe and keeping well. It has been great to hear from so many of you this week. It seems Tapestry has recovered from all the posts and high volume of users and is working well again.
Timetable: Monday 18th January
This week we will be continuing to explore fractions, in particular, finding fractions of amounts. This will include objects, money, and numbers. You are all so brilliant at your times tables, that I think one you’ve understood the method you need to apply, you will all be successful with. As requested, I have tried to include video links for most days to help you learn at home. Some of the activities set for each day are fairly long, so please don’t worry if you spread it out over a longer period of time, the timetable is there as a guide, so please don’t put pressure on yourselves.
Equivalent-Fractions- Challenge Y5 Monday

English is, without a doubt, the trickiest lesson to replicate at home, but you are all doing a marvellous job at trying your very best. This week there will be more of a focus on reading and planning. You are going to be looking at features of newspaper reports and have some fun sessions to complete.
