Dear Year Four,
We have had a busy and exciting week.
The children loved setting up our science experiment as we are testing the effect of different liquids on teeth. We have used egg shells as the teeth substitute. We have filled jars with a variety of liquids (including Prime!) and will observe the amount of decay on each egg.
We created the middle of our mythical adventure this week. The children wrote exciting, dramatic stories.
We are working on addition and subtraction with 4-digit numbers in maths.
For Spanish we are beginning to be able to have longer conversation as each week we learn more short phrases. The children should be able to say hello and ask how you are. They could ask you what your name is and how old you are.
For geography we measured the distance our food travels.
In our RE lesson the children learned about several pilgrimage sites for the Christian religion.
NEXT WEEK
Next week we will be completing all our projects for this half-term.
The month of October is Black History Month therefore we will be dedicating a day's teaching to this topic.
We will be soup tasting this week as we plan to make soup after half-term. I will be buying tins of vegetable soups that the children will taste test. Please let me know if you have any concerns about this.
