Inspirational Person – Year 4!

Good morning year 4!

In this message, we are asking for your help… as you know NJS will be completing a ‘Wax Work Museum’ on Thursday 8th February. More details for this will follow soon!

For this, children are asked to come dressed as someone who is inspirational to them! We will be completing some work in our English which will build up to a biography. The biography will be available to see during the wax work museum, which will be displayed next to your child as as display/poster/oversized presentation (see below).

We are asking if you could have some conversations at home regarding who your child would possibly choose. This will help the children feel more prepared when we ask them to choose a person. We are looking forward to helping the children create a biography for the event in the 8th of February!

We hope you enjoy having a conversation about who they may possibly choose and we look forward to sharing our inspirational people with you in February!

Many thanks,

The Year 4 Team!

If you need any inspiration… 

1. Have a look on google – lots of information about many inspirational people can be found.

2. The Little People, Big Dreams books are amazing! We will have a range available for the children to look at during English lessons.

– As you have seen from Mrs Ollerenshaw’ s post we are entering the BBC 500 words competition and the children have been working hard on their stories. However children need to enter from home! Coming home with the children are copies of their stories, which we have been working on in English this week, which will need typing up and entering directly onto the BBC 500 webpage following the link below:

4M – Children have come home with their stories and planning for typing up and uploading – if you would like to also email copies of the stories to me, I can also add them to the children’s English books (ben.moody@taw.org.uk)

We hope you all have a lovely half term break

BBC 500 Words Competition!

As you may have seen on the NJS website, we are hoping to enter as many children as possible into the BBC 500 words competition!

At some point, the children will plan and create their own individual story that they would like to enter. All the ideas are original and we spent some time developing the main character and then mapping out the stories! All children can enter the competition however, we need your help!

Below you will find the link to the website and the instructions from the BBC on how to enter! To help with this, we will be copying the story for the children to bring home so they can be entered. 

We wish all the children the best of luck! They certainly have been creative and should be very proud of themselves!

Thanks,

The Year 4 Team!
