September 2025 update

This week in History, Year 4 have learned about a typical day in the life for a child in Ancient Rome. With that in mind, we thought it was the perfect time to show you a day in the life of a Year 4 child at Glenfield Primary School!

In English, they have been drafting their own setting descriptions, carefully choosing descriptive language to make their writing vivid and engaging.

In reading, the children completed a task using dictionaries, searching for definitions to build their vocabulary and deepen their understanding of words.

In maths, the focus has been on place value, helping the children to develop confidence in recognising the value of each digit.

PE has been just as exciting, with the children beginning to learn cricket and practising their throwing skills, developing control with both overarm and underarm techniques.

It has been a productive and enjoyable week of learning!
