Year 4/5

Term: Spring
Inquiry: What Living in Wales Means to Me

During the Spring Term we have explored our dreams and goals through Jigsaw sessions. 

In Literacy we have developed our persuasive writing skills through our model text “Don’t Go Out After Dark.” 

In Numeracy, we have focused on the four operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. We have used manipulatives to develop our mental and written strategies. 

Finally, during inquiry, we have learnt about our heritage and identity, focusing on Wales and the world during the Victorian Era. Highlights were experiencing school life in a Victorian classroom and visiting the Big Pit. We combined our knowledge and dance skills to create a performance to express the story of coal mining in Wales. 

Next term, our inquiry is “Inventors and Inventions”. We will be learning all about AI and hopefully use our new knowledge and skills to create our own inventions.
