In D.T. we have been learning about the food and healthy eating. The children have designed and produced a bread-based product with a filling for lunch, such as a wrap, a
sandwich or roll. The children learned how to cut using the claw technique and the bridge technique.

In Science, we have been learning about the different states of matter and what defines a solid, a liquid and a gas. We discussed how the particles for each state are different. The children then acted out how the particles behave for each state. Then we conducted an experiment to investigate what happens to ice if it is left out at room temeprature.

The children spent the afternoon investigating a variety of different materials to learn about their various properties and begin to form an understanding of what makes each one unique.

Today was our annual trip to Rotherham Civic Theatre to watch this year’s pantomime: Robin Hood. The children were all fantastic and had a wonderful time.
From 11.11.24 to 18.11.24, the Y4 class has taken part in a Times Tables Rockstars Tournament with 12 other schools in our trust.
We are all super proud of all our Y4 children for contributing to amazing results in this tournament. Here are some photos of them receiving our trophy and with their certificates:
In Science, we have been learning about sound and how it is created when objects vibrate. The children made their own instruments, focusing not on aesthetics but on creating instruments that produce sound in a way similar to real-life instruments like shakers and guitars.

Today we were at the church for Holy Communion. In R.E. we have been learning about the kind of world Jesus wants. We’ve read Matthew 4:18-20 and really discussed the terms “Fishers of Men” and what the word “Gospel” mean. Helen & James were kind enough to spend some time afterwards talking to us about how they try to live out Jesus’ teachings and make the world a better place.

In Science, we have been learning about sound and how it is created when objects vibrate. The children were using instruments to see, hear and feel vibrations. Even though my ears were a little worse for wear afterwards, the children had a lot of fun and learned a lot!

What an amazing morning we had last week. A massive thank you to all parents and carers who managed to make it in.
The art was truly spectacular. I’m working on a display with the finished pieces which I will share in due time.
Fieldwork is when you go outside the classroom and find things out for yourself. Today, Year 4 started our geography fieldwork by trying to answer the question- What is there in Wickersley?
We counted the various business types, e.g. Take-Aways, Pharmacies etc. We made a tally and we will use that data to created a bar chart. We will also use Digimaps to plot our course and think about how we feel about various areas of Wickersley.
