Welcome to Year 4 page...

To start our learning journey, we will be using Google Earth to explore our planet: its different biomes, climate and diversity.

There are so many amazing things on Earth that we can celebrate and enjoy! However, it is not all sunshine and rainbows!

Every year, we extract an estimated 55 billion tons of fossil energy, minerals and metals from the Earth and at the current rate of deforestation, 5-10% of tropical forest species will become extinct every decade. We need to act now!

SUMMER TERM – EARTH MATTERS

This term, we are going to be exploring how we can make a difference to our world.

We are going to educate others by designing our own webpages, spread the word about plastic pollution and raise money to support a local charity fighting to save our planet!

After half-term, we are going to be learning all about the exciting, jaw-dropping Voyage of the Mystery where a small vessel consisting of seven men sailed all the way from Cornwall to Australia – over 11 thousand miles!

We can’t wait to start!

From Miss Gladdy, Miss Congdon and the Year 4 Team
