Year 4- Highland Cows

Welcome back! 

The children have come back amazingly this week and it has been great to see them already trying their best, working incredibly hard and doing it all with huge smiles on their faces! 

This week the children spent time settling into classroom routines and getting to know the new adults in the year group. They started their first class reader 'Here comes Hercules' and they loved it so much that they have already read 6 chapters! They predicted what might happen in the story based on the front cover and the blurb and then drew fantastic pictures of the choas that the demigod in the stoy creates- they found this very amusing! 

In the afternoons the children immersed themselves in this terms topic- Ancient Greece. They located the country on maps and atlases, explored the physical and human features of Greece and compared the country to England. The children enjoyed creating a class messy map of Greece and spent time working together to plot different historical landmarks. Next week we will be travelling back in time and exploring the history of ancient Greece and what life was like for different people during that period.
