On Friday 1st February in the morning, some of our parents joined their children in the hall for a workshop with Mrs Steele and Mrs Sanders.
Thank you all very much for coming.

On Friday 25th January, Year 4 experimented melting chocolate.
On Friday 21st December, Year 4 investigated static electricity. We were experimenting with balloons to see if we could attract shapes made of different paper.
On the 19th October 2018, the children used various materials to make switches and tested them in their circuit to see if they worked.
Lest we forget
Year 4 have been thinking about Remembrance day and, particularly significant this year, the centenary of the end of the First World War.
We have been learning about not just soldiers who came from all around the world to fight but also those who were left at home. We learned about how children, women and men who were too old to fight, helped the war effort.
Some of the children did their own research at home including finding out about their own relatives who were affected by the war or fought in the war. We have listened to songs and read poems and diaries of people from the time. As we reflected on the end of this war, which at the time was described as and hoped to be, the war to end all wars, we wrote letters of thanks to people who were alive at the time. Then we created pictures using silhouettes and beautiful sunset colours, to remember, lest we forget.

Key Instant Recall Facts are designed to support the development of the mental skills that underpin much of the maths work in schools. They are particularly useful when calculating, either adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing. Take a look at conkermaths.org for tips and hints.
