Year Four have been learning about how to use internet carefully and thinking about their own digital footprints.
The children then showed impressive graphic editing skills by copying and transferring images, and using ‘smart’ cutting tools to create effective collages.
Year 4 put their resilience and determination to the test last week trying to work out how to replicate this paper puzzle. They learnt all about the brain and how to deal with difficulties.
The children worked together, discussing strategies and solving problems. They found the activity tricky but they remembered to keep thinking and keep trying. Very impressive Year Four!
Year 4 have been studying atlases and the globe today to learn more about the countries that make up North America.
We located countries on the map and then found some of the corresponding flags. Great geography skills Y4!
Just before Christmas, Year Four were hoping to win 1 million pounds to make the holidays extra special!
Children worked as a team to answer maths questions using their Epods and for every question that saw more than half of the class answering correctly, we moved up the money ladder.
Year Four managed to reach £8000 working together! Great teamwork Y4!
When it was time to gather our results in Year 4, we couldn’t wait to take the eggs out of the liquids and inspect them. Lots of questions followed and we had an interesting discussion about what might have caused the different colours and textures.
Year 4 children used impressive scientific vocabulary to explain their experiment. They spoke about independent, dependent and controlled variables. Super scientists Y4!
Year 4 have been working scientifically this week. They identified all the variables which needed to be controlled so that they could reliably test the effects of different liquids on egg shells. We definitely having some budding scientists in the class! Well done everyone!
Last week, for Anti Bullying Week, Year 4 learnt about Nelson Mandela and his fight for equality. After being inspired by Mandela’s description of South Africa as a ‘Rainbow Nation’, we produced this amazing, whole class piece of artwork. Very impressive Year 4!
Look at some of the amazing art work Year Four have produced this week! They looked at the shapes of leaves and other clippings and arranged parts carefully to build an image. These are fantastic and so imaginative…well done all!!
Year Four worked together to write a class poem after studying the structure of Haiku poetry. I was blown away by what they came up with…all their own work. Well done Y4!
Year Four have been studying how Andy Goldsworthy uses colour to represent changes in nature. They spent time looking closely at the hues of different leaves and then arranged them to create colour graduation. Fantastic artwork Year Four!!
