What a busy term we have had in Year 4. Its been non-stop since September.
We have been finding out about the Vikings, building our own Viking ships and learning how they used these to invade and settle in our country.
Sewing lessons have taken over Friday afternoons, thanks to some of our parent helpers nearly everyone has successfully sewn a bookmark using cross-stitch or a purse or both. 
A surprise visit from zoo-lab created great excitement and we discovered many new facts about plants and animals in the rainforest which fitted in really well with our topic, habitats. The children were allowed to hold a snake and a giant millipede, which was like a walking toothbrush! They found out the importance of the creatures we saw and the role they play in keeping the rainforest alive.

The highlight of the term was our Christmas production which was linked to our school Comenius project.
Mrs. Wright and other teachers visited Poland in October and thought it would help us to find out facts about all the countries involved in the project.
The class learned about famous people and landmarks in Italy, Poland, England and Turkey using rhymes and songs to help.
