This week in Year 4, we’ve had an exciting time exploring the water cycle in science, where we learned how water travels through evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection—it was fascinating to see how it all connects! In PE, we’ve been practising our gymnastics skills, focusing on balance, rolls, and creating smooth sequences, which helped us build strength and confidence. In English, we’ve been writing dilemma stories, where our characters face tricky choices and have to decide what to do next—everyone came up with such imaginative and thoughtful ideas!

This week in Year 4, our classroom was buzzing with creativity as we explored the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur in English. The children planned and wrote their own heroic narratives using story mountains, bringing the ancient tale to life with vivid descriptions and developing the use of paragraphs.
In Maths, we investigated angles—acute, obtuse, and right angles.
Art sessions were a mosaic marvel! Inspired by Ancient Greek designs, children created stunning tiled artworks featuring ancient Greece symbols. A truly amazing week with fabulous outcomes.

We've had a brilliant week packed with learning, creativity, and a touch of mythology. Here's what we've been up to…
Maths: Subtraction Superstars!
This week in maths, we've been diving deep into subtraction. We've practised using column subtraction and even mental strategies to solve problems.
English: The Tale of Theseus and the Minotaur
In English, we’ve been developing our writing skills so that we can write a retell of a Greek myth based on: Theseus and the Minotaur. We imagined ourselves as brave heroes, sneaking through the twisting tunnels of the labyrinth, facing the fearsome beast, and using clever tricks to escape. We have been using expanded noun phrases, making word banks and using prepositions of time.
History: Discovering Ancient Greece & Democracy
Our history lessons have taken us back in time to Ancient Greece. We’ve explored what life was like in Athens and Sparta, learned about Greek gods and goddesses, and discovered how democracy began.
Did you know that the word democracy comes from the Greek words demos (people) and kratos (power)? That means “power of the people” — and it all started in Athens over 2,500 years ago!
We’re loving our journey through Ancient Greece and can’t wait to share more with you soon. Keep practising those subtraction skills at home — and maybe write your own myth too!
