This term has been an extremely busy, yet exciting one for class 4.
Our topic for the term has been the mighty Aztecs which has seen us involved in many activities such as Aztec News writing, story writing, Aztec art, making Aztec food and making headdresses. It has been a wonderful topic which all the children have participated well in and have enjoyed.
Our science topic of ‘sun, earth and moon’ has also been very successful with all the children getting the opportunity to visit a planetarium which came into school. Staff and children were amazed at what we learnt and saw in such a small amount of time. It was fantastic!
Obviously, the highlight for many this half term was PGL! What a week…abseiling, kayaking, trapeze, high ropes, problem solving, archery…the list goes on. It was a pleasure to have the opportunity to take the children and watch them grow and develop in their confidence and maturity. The staffing team were very proud of all the accomplishments they made in that week. So a big thank you to the children and also to Mrs Golby and Mr Shawley for all the support throughout the week.
Next term our topic focus is Geography based as we are going to be looking at rivers. We will start off the term by doing some river poetry which will lend itself nicely to poetic techniques. Our Science topic up until Christmas will be forces.
