Children have been busy exploring their new topic of electricity. The children were given the task of making a bulb light up. They had to work scientifically to choose the appropriate equipment, work out what variables to change and investigate why some circuits worked and others didn't.

Attached are a couple of photos of children completing a collaboration exercise in pairs. Both children had to have hold of the crayon at all times, but were not allowed to talk to each other. The children then had to draw a picture but neither knew what they were drawing as they couldn't…

During Science, we looked at a range of different instruments to consider: what was the source of the sound, how could we change the pitch and volume, how did our ears process the noise and what would happen if we played it in a different way.

Pupils have been putting their learning about food chains to create their own food chains and webs. Children considered what to put as their producers before carefully considering the consumers including herbivores, carnivores and omnivores that would create their food chain and show the transfer…

In Forest School we continued learning about Egypt by building some of our own Egyptian objects.

As part of our topic looking at rivers, year 4 have been identifying features of a river and the three main parts which make up the whole. We started with the source - a spring in the mountains, before more tributaries and other river sources come together to create an expansive river which joins…
