Our learning for Spring:

For this term, our class text is Eragon by Christopher Poalini, where we will be following a farm boy called Eragon who discovers something mysterious, leading him to a fierce battle and learning a new skill. 

Maths:

This first term back into School, Class 4 will be continuing there work on Area, perimeter and volume as well as understanding Fractions, decimals and percentages in more detail. The challenging concepts will continue into the end of term where Class 4 will be looking at Algebra and ratio then to close Spring off, we will be reviewing Conversions and positions. 

As the Year 6's continue their approach to SATs in Summer 2026, we will also be looking at SATs style questions and papers throughout the year to allow for familiarity within the learning environment.
