Game time! Place Value Battle (For 2 or more players)
Each player should draw a set of four squares next to each other on a piece of paper, as if you were going to write a four-digit number.
Take it in turns to roll a die and write it on their chosen place value square. The aim of the game is to be the player with the greatest four-digit number at the end of the game. Good luck! |

SCIENCE |
Before you do any research, make a mind map (like in school) of everything you already know about how sound works and how it is made. How can we make sound quieter and louder? How does a sound change as you move closer to it or further away? How do we change the pitch of a sound? How can we use air to make music? |
Sound – Lesson 2 Let’s begin to find out how sound works.

R.E. |
Hello Year 4! This term in RE we are going to be looking at Places of Worship. To start us off I would like you to think about a place that you love to go, somewhere that makes you feel happy. Maybe it’s somewhere at home or school, or a place you visited for a special occasion. Draw a picture of your special place and use your senses to describe what it is like - what could you hear/ touch/ smell/ taste/ see there? How does this place make you feel? Have fun! Mrs Westall |

Art |
Grab a piece of paper and some colouring pens/pencils. Play your favourite song. How does this song make you feel? Start to sketch a scene or picture that matches the mood of the music. Then, choose colours to colour in your sketch. How has your favourite song influenced your art? |

Hi Year 4! This week we are looking at digimaps again. I would like you to find out how our local area has changed over time. To do this, first log in to digimaps for school, using the username ha40lr (remember the 0 is a zero) and password: smides7219 Can you find 3 differences between how it was and how it is now? Tell someone in your house how the local area has changed. Do you think it has changed for the worse or for the better? Why? Why do you think it has changed so much? Have fun! Mrs Fraser. |

MUSIC |
Create a poster to show all the musical terminology you have learnt so far this year! Make it as colourful and artistic as you can and try to find somewhere to display it in your home. Fit in as many words as you can but don't worry if you don't have space for all of them. The music powerpoint (see below) for this week will give you some clues to help you remember what all of the words mean. |
