Some of our Year 3 and 4s had a jam packed day last Friday in the sunshine! We spent the morning investigating volcanoes and conducting our own science experiment to replicate a real life eruption! We used our clay skills to make clay faces, and decorated the nature garden with our ‘spirit of the trees’. We then finished our day making pizzas in the pizza oven before toasting marshmallows around the campfire 
Year 4 have loved their science this afternoon linked to Grouping and Classifying! We looked at ways living and non living things could be sorted and different ways they can be categorised. We then LOVED playing a game of ‘Guess Who’ in which we had to ask questions in order to identify and group people, using classification techniques! 
Year 4 had a brilliant time at Low Barns Nature Reserve! We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the site and connected with so much of nature. We learned all about habitats linked to rivers and explored so much through bug hunts and pond dipping! What a super day
Year 4 have had a great day for World Book Day! 
We have looked at animals in art and illustrations within books. We made some clay animals of our own to then tell and write our own stories about animals! We also paraded our outfits this morning and used our Oracy skills to talk about our characters
Year 4 loved their maths today! We completed an Nrich task, linked to fractions. We have been absolutely amazing at our fraction unit so far and impressed Miss Marley with our ability to match fraction amounts today, or equivalent amounts! 
This week in swimming Year 4 practised back crawl! 
This afternoon Year 4 created a ‘conscience alley’ in RE, whereby we had to convince Judas to either betray or not betray Jesus. A ‘Judas’ walked down the middle to hear our reasons… our arguments were very compelling and both children chose to betray!!
Year 4’s confidence in the water continues to grow! We are so proud of the resilience and perseverance shown by all as practice makes progress.
Year 4 completed their bikeability course today! This means they are ready for their next stage to be completed in year 5 they had a great time! Thank you all parents and carers for your support getting bikes to school today, we really appreciate it
