Year 4 17.1.25

Science

Year 4 have started their new Science topic, Sound.  This week they have been on a sound walk to establish which area of the school is the quietest and the loudest.  The big question … Is there anywhere at school that is actually silent?  They have also explored a variety of percussion instruments, discovering how sound is made through vibrations.

Art – The Dot

Inspired by Peter H Reynolds’ beautiful picture book ‘The Dot’, the Year 4s have been experimenting with watercolours to create their own stunning collections of dots. Tom Johnson / Keith Siddle
