  All about Gas

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  Today we look at the particle structure of solids, liquids and gas. After looking at solids and liquids last week, we changed our focus to gas. We discussed how they differ and completed an experiment, which demonstrated the movement of gas. As we know, gas get's everywhere! The children made some brilliant well thought out predictions and talked about why it might not have worked! Well done year 4!

  Introduction to Coding

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  We started our coding journey in year 4 this year. Despite some first lesson teething problems regarding the internet, the children were given an opportunity to play around with the "Gibbon," programme on purplemash. The children managed to change objects and background and we're hoping for a smoother transition next week into sorting our issues with coding! Well done year 4

  Agreements

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  We started looking at Judasim today. We focused on making agreements and what it means to make an agreement. We focused on the agreements we make in school, at clubs and how important they are that we keep them. Looking forward to look at the agreements Jews make with God in future lessons.

  Liquid or solid?

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  In Science this term we are looking at States of Matter. Today we focused on liquid and solids. What are the difference? If it can be poured is it a liquid?

Well done year 4!
