We began our Science lesson today with a Kahoot to go over facts that we had previously learnt about rocks. We then used playdough to explain the process of how the different rocks are formed. We began with igneous rock that is created when magma cools to form rock. We Read more…
During our D&T lessons this half term we will be making pavilions for endangered animals. Today we looked at building structures to try and get some inspiration for our designs. The children worked in groups and were given time to make basic geometric structures before exploring creating larger structures, considering Read more…

During our Science lesson, we looked at Non-Newton fluids. These are liquids that change the behaviour when a force is applied to them. We found that when we squeezed the Oobleck or tried to pull something through it, it becomes more solid. However, when it is not under pressure, it Read more…
Today when we arrived at school something odd had happened! Frogs had fallen from the ceiling! Over the next week we are going investigate what has happened and create newspaper reports based on our findings. Today we walked around as detectives and created questions that we could ask eye witnesses. Read more…
During our meeting today, the children decided we needed to make everyone aware of who the anti- bullying ambassadors are so that children can go to them for help. We created posters to put up in our classrooms. We also discussed things we could do in the playground like a Read more…
Year 4s Science topic this half term is ‘Phases of matter’. During our Science lesson we learnt that all matter can come in three states: solids, liquids and gases. Each of these three states of matter have particular properties. These properties can help us tell which state of matter a Read more…
Year 4 Hawthorn have had a fantastic morning! Touchstones came into our school to teach us all about the Romans. We learnt facts about the Romans and we created our own veillums. Touchstones have also left an artefacts box with us to have a look at over the next few Read more…
