Electricity
In the second half of the Autumn term, year 4 have been studying electricity. We have build circuits, made our own switches and tested whether materials are conductors or insulators. Finally, year 4 created their own working torches.
Winter Arts Morning
The whole school took part in a winter arts morning. In year 4, we created winter backgrounds using water colours and then used charcoal to draw on the foreground.
November
This month, both classes shared their learning so far, during a celebration assembly. Both classes performed a song with some effective actions.

In Science, our topic has been states of matter. We have learnt about solids, liquids and gasses. We made chocolate crispy cakes by using our knowledge to melt the chocolate at the correct temperature. They tasted delicious!

As historians, we have been learning about the Anglo Saxons. In art, we have also studied Anglo Saxon pottery design and then used clay to bring our on ideas to life.
We also planned out our ideas first in our sketch books.
