Year 4 Framework

 

End Points

The Key objectives for each subject area which we would be supporting all children to have mastered are mapped out on a Year 4 End Points document.  These are the key objectives that we feel a child needs to have mastered to move onto the next years curriculum for each subject.

End of Year Learning Outcomes:

The following guide gives examples of learning that we would typically expect a child in Year 4 to demonstrate if they are achieving at an age appropriate level by the end of the year. 

We hope that you will find the guide useful and that it will enable you to understand some of the learning that a child who is working at an age appropriate level may be able to complete.

Leonardo da Vinci

 

 

 

 

"Leonardo da Vinci was a genius in many fields. He excelled at painting, drawing, sculpture, architecture, and engineering. He was a leading figure of the Italian Renaissance, a period of great achievement in the arts and sciences. Leonardo’s paintings Mona Lisa and Last Supper won him great fame. But he is also well known for his scientific studies."
