This afternoon in Year 4, we have been thinking about the similarities and differences that we have with one another. As part of our lesson, we created a ‘web of similarities’ to discover all the things that connect us together. These included the types of families we have, our favourite pets and our hobbies.
We enjoyed learning something new about our friends!
This half term we have been writing our own legends based on The Blue Frog: The Legend of Chocolate.
At the beginning of our unit of work, we started by identifying the features of legends and considering what we needed to be successful in our own writing.
We have started writing the opening paragraphs to our legends, both as a class and independently. Since then, we have been thinking carefully about the writing process and how we can be like authors, editing, improving and redrafting our work.
We look forward to sharing our finished legends with you!
Today in Les Hiboux, the children used homemade percussion instruments to perform a rap in our school garden.
Gather round with your family and enjoy the many treats that our collection of talented individuals have to offer…
Just because we can’t be at Whitwell, it doesn’t mean we can’t have hot chocolate! Watch as Miss Hunter makes “the best hot chocolate ever” and then have a go at making your own Whitwell hot chocolate.

In this testing time, it’s always beneficial to take a few moments to reflect and be calm.

Each week Miss Hunter will be setting you a challenge.
This week’s challenge is to draw a dinosaur. Sounds easy… but this challenge needs to be completed with your eyes closed! Once you’ve drawn your outline, you are allowed to open your eyes and colour the dinosaur in.
Don’t forget to upload your pictures to Seesaw!
This is the overview of your learning for this week. It includes what you will be doing in English, Maths, Reading, Topic, PE and Computing. Each day, we will release the activity that we would like you do at the time that is showing on your timetable. This means that you will do the learning at the same time each day.
