This morning, Year 4 explored electricity with a fantastic session led by Electricity North West. We drew and built circuits, discussed electrical safety and even made a human circuit using the electricity in our bodies!
 

We listened to the story of Noah. The children were very interested in the part about the rainbow. We used a handy table to make our loose parts rainbow. The children all talked about their favourite colours.

We have looked all around school for things that might not be safe. We are good at spotting dangers.

Yesterday we had a street dance session. We learnt how to do a cool walk, poses and the flip roll. We had lots of fun learning these new skills.

We enjoyed experiencing Street Dance today. We liked the different movements we made with our bodies. Thanks Jennifer. 

We used great skills to make the bread: sifting, stirring and kneading the dough. It was tasty!

We investigated lots of different types of bread after reading The Little Red Hen. We discussed where the ingredients came from.

Thank you to all our parents who came in and spoke about their jobs. The children loved hearing how you are all Real-life Superheroes!

Year 4 had the pleasure of welcoming Marcus the Roman Soldier into school this afternoon. He helped them begin their training to become future members of the Roman Legion! Year 4 showed off their skills and learnt lots too. They are going to be some excellent soldiers for the Roman Empire, well…

This afternoon, we were investigating what happened to our bodies when we exercise. It made our hearts beat faster, made us hotter and we were out of breath.

We also learned that exercise was good for our physical health and our mental health.
