  Lady Fu Hao Tomb

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  Year 4 continued looking at Lady Fu Hao's tomb. We again explored what was found in the tomb and what it told us about the past. Using our own knowledge we explored what objects were by what they were. Year 4 did a great job. Well done.

  PSHE - Judging by appearances

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  Today we discussed judging things by their appearances. We looked at an image of the dog and asked what it made us feel. We then added more facts and acted how that changed our opinion. The children discussed why they though their initial thoughts. We had a discussion and all thought about times we've judged at first sight. Well done year 4

  Electricity

  Posted by Mr A Hart

  For Science this term, Year 4 are looking at Electricity. This is also going to link nicely to DT and our theme of Artbot! However, today we investigated where Electricity comes from. We then discussed what type of energy provides electricity and discussed benefits and negatives of a range of fuel, ranging from Fossil fuel to the renewable sources of energy. Well done Year 4
