Welcome to Year 4!
This half term, we will look at the information text 'Penguins' by Penelope Arlon and Tory Gordan Harris . We will be looking at the features of this type of text and are using this to create our own. In reading we will be looking at the text 'Cakes in Space' and will also continue our retrieval and inference skills by looking at different extracts from this book each week. In Maths we will be learning about fractions and time.
In Geography we will be exploring the topic ‘ The UK vs Italy' where we will be exploring and comparing Human and physical features of both places.
