Class 4

Tony and Dan came back and said that the girls, "represented the school well"... keeping it quiet so that the girls would be able to return to school and share the EXCELLENT NEWS that THEY WON!

So...does increasing the length of the wire make a bulb brighter or dimmer? What about adding more bulbs or adding a motor to the circuit? Does that alter the brightness? We spent this afternoon finding out about this and more. We then used symbols to represent our findings with scientific circuit diagrams 😀  

Today's maths - challenging at first! Ask your child to explain BIDMAS..... 😫 [attach 1] [attach 2] [attach 3]

A literacy lesson designing fiction genre posters, followed by our first GOLDEN TIME! The posters were excellent, despite some very tempermental computers...... you can hopefully see them here!

I thought this photo just captured a true love of learning in our science this afternoon. Total awe and wonder😀

She heard they travel 3200 miles to get here, so she thought about running or cycling 32 miles - quite an achievement!  So... adding to the 24 miles she cycled on the School's bike ride day, Chloé also went out [...]

The challenge then was to create the Iron Man's eye, the first part of the Iron Man that was found, by building a circuit to light a bulb. We also [...]
