Year 4

In our science lesson this week we tested whether a lamp would light up when connected to different circuits. 

We made the circuits using light bulbs, wires and batteries and then explained why they did or did not light up. 

In RE, Class 10 have been thinking about why the Bible is important to Christians. 

We explored different versions of the Bible, before working in groups to order statements as to why it's important. 

Today we started our new topic in science. We are learning about electricity.

We looked at what electricity is, new vocabulary and symbols used to draw circuits.

We then played a game in pairs where we had to build our own circuits.

Class 9 have been discussing why the Bible is important to Christians.

We ranked different reasons in groups and picked our ‘Top 5’ reasons.

We then used oracy skills to feed it back to the class.

Class 9 have been learning all about Diwali and the story of Rama and Sita. 

This is a song about them.

We have also been looking at the meaning of light for Diwali and how lanterns and fireworks are used in the celebrations. 

Here are some of our firework pictures and lanterns we have…

We have practiced singing and adding in the recorder - we have worked so hard and sounded brilliant!

In Class 10, we have been writing play scripts in English. 

In groups, we have planned and written a scene from a book or film, thinking about stage directions and body language, as well as what the characters will say. 

We can't wait to perform them tomorrow!

Class 10 enjoyed being rescuers and tribes people of the Amazon. 

We used mapping to find our way as rescuers to the tribes people stranded on a Piranha-infested river.
