Well done year 4!

This week year 4 have been thinking about different aspects of science as part of National Science Week. On Tuesday we completed our investigations into the effects of different liquids on teeth and then during the afternoon we completed a whole range of activities. We started to build a volcano which links to our work in Topic and started to look at Non-Newtonian fluids as a sneak peek at our upcoming science topic on states of matter.

A fantastic workshop with children and parents in Y4 today looking at how we teach and assess reading in Y4. All the children tried really hard and worked well with their families to practice their retrieval and inference reading skills. Thank you to all the parents who attended and took part in our cross curricular reading activity.

Year 4 are currently learning all about Earthquakes around the world. They have been using lots of new ambitious vocabulary, learning what causes earthquakes and identifying areas that are more likely to experience earthquakes and why.

​

Surprisingly, the largest earthquakes don't always cause the most death and destruction! Ask a Year 4 pupil why?

4FP had a super morning developing their maths, geography and computing skills today. We used trundles to measure the perimeter of our school to explore the question Is the perimeter of our school more or less than 1km?  We measured every 100m and took a photo to plot our route. We plotted maps in our maths books and then we used the app Bazaart to create a digital map of the perimeter. Well done y4 :)
