Good morning my lovely Goldfinches,
Wasn't it gorgeous yesterday! We enjoyed a lovely long bike ride for our active time.
We have been learning to get better at playing badminton and although we started only being able to hit 2 or 3 shots back and forth, we have improved daily and reached 16 without dropping the shuttlecock yesterday!
Discussion: Today can you share something you have had to persevere with in order to get better?
School Jobs:
Reading: Have a go at the butterfly myth reading comprehension (attached) start by just reading the text and highlighting or jotting down the words which are new to you or you don't understand.Ask an adult or use a dictionary or google to find the meaning. Then choose 2 or 3 questions to answer today.
Maths: Lots of the work in our Summer Term 2 home learning pack is about fractions. Work through this pack just a little bit at a time. Have a look at the White Rose Maths lesson in SUMMER TERM WEEK 2- Lesson 2 Halves and Quarters to support your learning. https://whiterosemaths.com/homelearning/year-4/
Art/Geography/Science: If you Google 'John Dyer images' you will be able to see the style of painting he uses. It's so bright and colourful. Have a look at lesson 2 (attached) which shows you another art technique.

Tuesday – Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner
Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner has been climbing mountains since she was just thirteen years old.
In adulthood she became a nurse, but kept climbing as often as possible: She was always working to save up for her next climbing trip. She eventually became the first female to climb all of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks (and above) without the use of oxygen. Wow! Just remember you can achieve anything if you want to do it. What will you do?
