Welcome to Class 4a
We are a hardworking group of Year 6 children and Mrs Taylor is our teacher.
What we have been doing:
2021/22
- We had a fantastic time learning about animals and their habitats! Some of us were really brave and held/stroked some of the creatures.
- In PE we have been learning about balance. Working in pairs we created some great ‘counter tension’ and ‘counter balance’ poses!
- The local fire brigade popped in to give us some advice on staying safe during Bonfire night. After a safety talk we had great fun pretending to put the fires out!
- As part of our music lessons we have enjoyed working with the year 5 children to make our own handmade ‘rhythm sticks’. We have then used these to explore Maya music and to create accompaniment for a range of different songs we are learning.
- Within our Maya history topic we had a fun filled afternoon making, cooking and eating traditional Maya food! We created a bitter spiced dark chocolate drink, chunky guacamole and some corn tortillas! Opinions on whether we liked the taste were divided but I can safely say we all gave them a try!
2020/21
- Since returning in February we have conducted a number of science experiments involving different materials. We have investigated those which can dissolve, those which make good insulators and finally developed ways of separating different material mixtures using a range of filtering, magnetic attraction and heat processes.
- As part of our ‘Light’ science topic we conducted a number of experiments involving electrical circuits. Combining these with a DT project we ended the topic by designing and making a Christmas themed light box. All with their own working lights .
