Year 4
Weekly Update - Friday 17th January 2025
Summary of this week:
Dear Year 4 Parents and Carers,
We have had a great week learning what similes are and applying these to our writing to make our portal stories more engaging. The children are also enjoying our Art lessons, where they are mixing colours to make them lighter or darker.
