Term 1
This term, Year 4 will be learning about the Romans. Our key question this term is " Have the Romans had an impact on Britain?
I am Warrior! I am strong, brave and powerful. Meet me in battle. Draw your sword, wield your axe and challenge me if you dare. Invade and attack. Romans versus Celts, the fight is on. Discover warring Britain: meet Claudius, Boudicca and Julius Caesar and find out what the Romans did for us. Get ready for Gladiator School and learn alongside Spartacus and Spiculus, brave fighters of the Roman Colosseum. When all that battling makes you hungry, relax, lie back and feast yourself on dormice and grapes, or perhaps a roasted swan sprinkled with nuts?

Spellings for this week are below. They correlate with our Oxford Owl spelling scheme, which is taught in school. Spellings are pre-tested on a Wednesday to get a baseline score, and then tested on the following Monday to see the children's progress after learning them. All children are tested on the Star Spellings, which acts as a recall activity to keep these high frequency words embedded.
