We had a wonderful afternoon.

After this, we took pot luck at our affirmations cards and celebrated all things positive -making our friends feel good and also ourselves. What a fantastic class, full of kind, caring, considerate children.

Happy European Day of Languages!

Hola  bienvenido al ano 4M.

Year 4M, have had a fantastic day celebrating all things Spanish. We've tasted tapas, chicken and chorizo in a salsa sauce with crusty bread, Spanish cheese and much more . Yummy!!

We researched  lots of interesting facts about Spain using the chromebooks. In addition to this, we watched some spectacular flamenco dancing, then it was our turn to have a go. Ole!

A fantastic day all round. 

Nosotras amamos espana.

 We were also very lucky today to have our very special guest, Yolande the Spanish Teacher. The Children really enjoyed learning some Spanish phrases. Also, we learnt how to sing Head and Shoulders Knees and Toes in Spanish - Wow! Thank You so much for your time.

Gracias! 

Welcome  to  our fabulous Pupil voice and Sports Ambassador for our year ahead.

Today, 4M had the pleasure of formally inviting Mr Beaty to drop in on our special performaces of our very own adapted playscripts. Which, we have worked very hard to create from Our story Leon and the place between.

Today in maths, we were using mirrors and looking at our reflections to see what differences we noticed. We then went around the classroom looking at other objects and their reflections. We had lots of fun- especially pulling silly faces in the mirror. 

Wednesday 6th July 2022

We've had a fantastic morning today measuring angles. Firstly, we recognised which angles were acute or obtuse. Next, we measured the angles using protractors. Knowing which angle was acute or obtuse helped us to conclude our answers.  We had lots of discussion on why angles are so important such as becoming an architect, fashion designer, inventor!! Judging by our class responses we have lots of these coming through- watch this space.

During this afternoon, 4M took some time out, to learn about pointillism. We took our inspiration from some very well known artist such as Paul Signac, Maxmillian Luce and Charles Angrand.

Today, we had a great time in our art lesson. We were drawing still life, and we captured it from different perspectives. 

Tuesday 21st June 2022

Today, 4M took part in an experiment to find out how the digestive system works. We used plastic  wallets to represent the stomach and tights to act as the small intestines. Cream crackers and water combined acted as the saliva. Orange juice represented the stomach. The children acted as the stomach walls and crushed the crackers with the stomach acid(orange juice). We  created our very own oesophagus and intestine and we watched the food travel down. 

Now for the exciting part!!!!

We excreted the food through cups which represented our bottoms.

Lots of scientific language was taking place such as salivary gland, oesophagus, small intestine & pancreas.

Tuesday 21st June 2022.

4M, took full advantage of the sunshine today. We have been learning all about how to turn a story into a playscript. We used the 3 Billy Goats Gruff as our example, we then acted out our very own handwritten playscripts in class. This really helped us to understand how to create a playscript, using tone, characters and stage directions.

Their behaviour was fantastic. ( well done 😃) keep your eyes peeled, to the page over the next few weeks, lots of exciting things to come. 

The children of 4M, were alll very brave, going out of their comfort zone and saying kind words to someone in class, they usually don't get a chance to speak to. They were all brave, kind and caring with their words. Well done 👏

Today, the children all had the opportunity to create their very own designs, with the use of their plastic, which they all brought in from home. They created some fabulous recyclable fashion creations.

Today, all of the class have made Roman soup. The soup consisted of carrots,  parsnips, swede,  onion, potato and butternut squash. We all learnt how to hold a knife correctly and safely whilst cutting the vegetables. After we prepared the soup for cooking, we wrote a set of instructions on how to make it. Our writing included fronted adverbials and bossy verbs as put, take, do, now etc..

Friday 21st January

Today, the class had the opportunity to taste their soup. Which, they worked hard at preparing. Some of the children enjoyed the soup and some did not. Overall the soup making was a success.
