This Week In Year 4, we have really enjoyed playing Cricket! Yes we took over for Y5 and had such fun and really did well. We learnt how to hit the ball really hard and field really well. In 2 DAYS Miss Preistley is going back to Edge Hill University. So sad. Anyway, we have have continued our work on D&T (Design and Technology) we are sewing our own purses and wallets. Before the lesson, we were given cupcakes from Miss Preistly and mindful colouring from Mrs.Pratten. In English,we have been arguing for and against school uniform and zoos. We had a secret vote and against won. Sorry For! We had Deepdale Duck (the PNE mascot) came in to assembly and was sitting on people's laps! In IT, we made a web to deliver E-Mails to one anonther.

In the middle of the week,we have been learning about stereotypes and how you shouldn't judge someone by how they look or believe. In English we have been doing a review and our highlights of Year 4. We have just about finished them and they look excellent! In maths, we have been reaserching and looking into polygons and have really had fun with them (Drawing them and just plain looking at them!). People went to athletics to do running,javelin,obstacle courses,sprinting and long jump and we had lots of fun.We came either 4th,5th,6th,7th,8th or 9th! In History, we had a visit from Cleopatra VII and Tutankhamen!

Painting, by Mrs Catterall

We enjoyed painting flowers, we thought about the shape of the petals and lightly sketched them on the page. We chose 1 colour and used this to paint the petals using small flicking strokes, each time adding white to the paint to make it a lighter shade.

This Week In Year 4, we have been playing our violins yet again and our school concert is in 3 Weeks so we better get ready and practice! In maths we have been doing symmetry and messing with shapes. We've been cutting out triangals and making shapes with them. We tried to copy the exact shape on the other side and that was the tricky part! In English, we have had a proper debate about for or against zoos. Both sides (For And Against) had some good arguments in stock and the debate ended in a draw and under some circumstances, zoos were alowed in our world!

Science-plants, by Mrs Catterall
Date: 19th Jun 2017 @ 9:50pm
What a lovely day. We took the opportunity to take our learning outside this afternoon and sit in the shade.
We started the lesson by exploring all the words we could think of connected to 'plants' and then tried to link them together by sharing the facts we already knew. What does a plant look like? We had lots of similar ideas when asked to draw a plant - a stem, a leaf at either side and a round flower centre with petals around it.
With our clipboards in hand we set off out into the school grounds to find a plant and develop our observation skills by drawing different examples of plant life.
Back in class we sorted a variety of pictures under the headings, alive, not alive , never alive. We had some interesting discussions especially about the picture of a fire.
Glass and plastic - were they once alive? See what you can discover?
