Class 4 have had a busy couple of weeks! We were really proud of our Easter Praise performance and very grateful for all of the parents and grandparents who came to watch us.

Spring 2 – Week 5 – SCIENCE WEEK!

Class 4 have had a fantastic week. Whilst rehearsing for the play, we have also enjoyed carrying out different activities for science week. We started off the week with a visit from an astronomer and a planetarium in our hall! We designed and made our own paper planes for an experiment on aerodynamics. Next, it was off to the moon for some exploration. In teams, we designed lunar rovers that would be able to get an astronaut safely around the moon. Imagining ourselves as an astronaut, we wrote diary entries of our day exploring the moon and look for rock for examination. On Friday, we had a very special visitor who came in to teach us about our hearts. Thank you Mrs Barlow for coming to visit us! We finished off the week by turning our lunar rover designs in to a model.

Spring 2 – Week 4 – Looking after our teeth!

Stars of the Week: Xavi and Saskia

Last Friday, we were very lucky to have a very special visitor come in to school to teach us about our teeth. We had a fantastic time learning about taking care of our teeth with Sharlene! We are now all experts in teeth brushing, flossing and why we need to take care of our teeth! A big thank you to Sharlene for making it such a fantastic afternoon full of exciting learning!

Spring 2 – Week 3 – What is art?

Stars of the week: Amiah and Beatrix

Welcome to Amiah who has joined class 4 this week and well done Beatrix for being a lovely friendĀ  helping Amiah settle in.

Class 4 enjoyed their visit to the Whitechapel gallery this week. They had a fantastic time looking at modern artworks and talking about their meanings. They loved the opportunity to interact and use their imagination to explore the exhibitions on show. Back at school, we discussed ‘what is art?’ and whether art can just be an idea. Well done class 4 for being so enthusiastic!

Spring 2 – Week 1 – Play Scripts!

We will be developing our own ideas for a play script over this half term.

Stars of Week – Zac and Salma

Lat week, we discussed how to be safe on the internet. We were looking at what it means to give permission and why this is important when using the internet. We acted out some different scenarios and came up with solutions for our characters. As a class, we then made a list of top tips for staying safe on the internet and being aware of sharing our information on the internet. Well done class 4 for your brilliant ideas!

Spring 1 – Week 4 – ‘Dear Greenpeace’

Class 4 have enjoyed writing persuasive letters this week in English. As we have been learning about deforestation, we decided to write a letter to Greenpeace to persuade them to do more to help the rainforest. We have written letters using facts, emotive language and rhetorical questions to persuade the reader to help us safe the rainforest.

We are looking forward to showing our brilliant work on our ‘Vanishing Rainforest’ display, along with our rainforest animal masks!!
