This morning in science, we carried out an investigation to identify the best material to muffle sounds. We used data loggers to record the decibels and plotted our results in a bar chart.  

This term in art, we have been designing and creating our own amazing dragon eyes using clay.

Our topic launch continued with Year 4 Viking Day! We had a Viking visitor in school to share his traditional Viking stories and his amazing artefacts. We also had our very own Viking battle!  

This week, we have been learning about the Anglo-Saxons. As part of our first launch activity, we designed and painted our own Anglo-Saxons shields. We also wrote our own secret messages using Anglo-Saxon Runes!  

In Design and Technology, we planned, created, tasted and evaluated our own amazing smoothies. They were delicious! Check out our super smoothie pictures below…

Check out our photos of our practical digestive system! We watched how crackers and a banana travels from our mouth, to our stomach, to our small intestines and finally our large intestines.       

Over the period of a week, we observed the effect of cola, orange juice and water on egg shells. We then made links to our Science learning to understand how to look after our teeth.

As part of our topic launch, we created our clay teeth! We painted and colour co-ordinated each tooth to show whether it was an incisor, canine, premolar, molar or wisdom tooth.

Year 4 had an AMAZING morning! We started with a range of outdoor games and activities and enjoyed a refreshing ice cream. We also had our own water fight and slip + slide. Check out our awesome pictures below…  

Today we made sure that we could add and subtract 2 digit numbers using the column method, including exchanges.  The children were amazing!  Well done for your hard work this year.
