Welcome to Ellie Simmonds class
We are the Year 4 class at Scissett CE Academy. Our teacher is Mrs Mason. In Year 4, we are working on our independence skills and responsibility as we head towards our last year in school (this may mean extra responsibilities around school as well!). We are so excited for the brilliant year ahead filled with lots of learning and fun. This year will include learning about countries of the world, Vikings, sound and so much more! Keep checking on what we have been up to!
Mr Codling has been teaching for a long time (he was a teacher back in the last millennium!) and he loves working with KS2 children, encouraging us to develop greater independence and responsibility. He aims to stimulate a love of learning, and help us develop into “confident, switched-on young people with a good work ethic and respect for all.” This fits in with our class identity.

Live Author Event
Year 4 took part in an online author event on Friday last week hosted by Mikey Please - an author, illustrator and film maker known for his unique and quirky art styles. The children listened to the process of how Please became an author and how his designs were made into a film. The children then took part in a live tutorial on how to draw his most famous characters!
The Traditional Tale of Aladdin
Year 4 have had a terrific start to the year! In English, we have been studying the traditional tale Aladdin. In this lesson, we thought about how Aladdin felt trapped in the cave of wonders and we showed this through different drama activities. Brilliant work year 4!
