Y4/5 visited St. Joseph’s Catholic Academy on Wednesday morning to participate in a P.E. event led by their Sport’s Leaders where we enjoyed completing various sporting activities and challenges. We completed football, netball, cheerleading and agility challenges. Check out some of our in action photos!
Year 4 had a fantastic No Pens Day on Tuesday! In Maths, the children explored multiplying and dividing by 10 and 100. They used place value mats to show how digits move, helping them explain their methods.
In English, the children used their oracy skills to give each other step by step instructions on how to make the perfect sandwich . They listened carefully, spoke clearly and had lots of fun!
During History, the children became reporters for the afternoon. They created their own news reports to tell the story of a Viking raid on Lindisfarne. They spent time developing and rehearsing their lines, focusing on projection and engaging their audience. Well done Year Four!
During Y4’s DT topic, we designed , made and evaluated a healthy snack. We decided we wanted to make fruity popcorn. We added blueberries, grapes and cinnamon. It was very yummy!
During our RE topic, Year 4 have been discussing how belief in incarnation influences the lives and choices of Christians. In groups, we looked at Bible passages and described how parts of these passages reflect the concept of incarnation.
Today, Year Four celebrated Children In Need by taking part in lots of fun activities including ‘code breaking’ linked to our Maths and English learning. We were also so impressed with their fabulous outfits!
Year Four had a great time this morning during ‘Breakfast with a Book’. First, we read stories with our friends. Then, it was time for toast and juice . We finished the morning by reading a whole class book about Katherine Johnson and her contribution to Space travel!
Year Four began their new ‘Sound’ Science topic yrstrrday afternoon. We created a carousel of sound activities including changing pitch and volume, creating visible vibrations and listening to environmental sounds outdoors. We recorded our observations and used these to form any further questions for future lessons
Year Four had a fantastic time at Jarrow Hall! We explored an Anglo Saxon farm and village. After lunch, we practiced some weaving linked to Anglo Saxon textiles and re-enacted a battle between the Vikings and Anglo Saxons ️
In our ‘ Fresh Food, Good Food’ topic, Y4 designed and made their own food packaging for Fruity Popcorn. We decided we would need to add a brand name , ingredients and a best before date. We had so much fun!
Year 6 have ended their musical unit by composing their own 4 bar melody, inspired by the song Riverside Sunset.
