Wow! The children have worked so hard on some fantastic Autumn-inspired 🍁🍂Maths homework this fortnight. They have used natural items such as leaves, acorns, branches, berries and acorns to create a collage of a number of their choice. They have then surrounded their number with calculations that give their chosen number as the answer. Fantastic homework J4 🌟! We hope that you enjoy looking at our Autumn Maths homework gallery.

The children will bring home a letter today about Year 4's trip to Bryngarw Country Park on Tuesday October 21st. Please complete the consent slip as appropriate and return to Mr. Evans. If you require the school to provide a packed lunch for your child, please could you let us know before Friday October 10th so that advance arrangements for food ordering can be made. Thank you for your continued support.

The children will bring home a new homework activity today - ‘Book in a Poster’ (see picture). It is due to be handed in by Friday 17th October. This is an IT/digital homework to be completed on Adobe Express (on the children’s Hwb platform). Alternatively the children may hand in this homework on paper.

Year 4 will take part in the ‘Tiny Forest’ 🌳 🌳 🌳 🌳 project at the community green space along Heol-y-Frenhines on Wednesday 15th October. We will work in partnership with Valleys2Coast, Earthwatch and a local horticultural society. See letter (pictured) for more details. This has also been emailed and uploaded to our website/Parent App as well as to J4’s Seesaw

Once we had created our different types of angles (right angles, acute angles, obtuse angles, straight line angles and reflex angles), we then described them in terms of their mathematical properties, using precise mathematical vocabulary. We did this so well. Watch our videos to see if you agree.

Amazing angles 📐. This morning, we worked outside in our groups to use natural materials to create different types of angles. Applying our mathematical knowledge, we used leaves 🍁 🍂, twigs 🪾, stones, berries 🫐 , bark and acorns etc. to create right angles, acute angles, obtuse angles, straight line angles and reflex angles.
