4W Hedgehogs
Welcome to the 4W Hedgehog's class page! This is where amazing work from children in our class will be displayed, as well as photos from some of the fantastic learning opportunities in Year 4. Miss Walsh is the class teacher and Miss Farrell, Miss Nixon and Miss Pritchard support in class. Miss Goulty teaches 4W on Tuesday mornings or afternoons alternating weeks.
French - We have been learning about the weather and how to talk about this in French. Today we learned how to say the multiples of 10 in French to help us describe the temperature in different French cities.
We had a TTRS competition against 5E and we won! These are our 3 most valuable players during this competition as they earned our class the most points! Well done boys!
DT: We had a DT day where we created pavilions after designing them the lesson before. They had to have some sort of roof covering but after that it was up to them what their pavilion was going to look like! There were lots of children who used excellent creativity and added interesting features to theirs!
Roman Day! Year 4 were visited by a Roman soldier! He shared lots of information with us about what it would have been like to be a Roman soldier, how they lived and what they had to do. He also taught us how to march like a Roman soldier would have done!He then came into our classroom and we looked at some Roman items. These includes a necklace, a helmet, cups made from bone, part of an axe and more. In the afternoon, we got the chance to hold swords and feel how heavy Roman armour was.
Music: In music we have been learning to use our voice as an instrument and looking at different types of music, including beat boxing. In today's lesson we were learning about instruments that are aerophones and looking at how some songs that use aerophone instruments can sound similar to each other.
Maths: We have begun our addition and subtraction topic in maths. We had base 10 and counters to make 4 digit numbers and then put these in a place value grid. We used this to help with adding and subtracting numbers.
Science: We conducted an experiment using eggs and different liquids. The eggs represented our teeth and the shell represents the enamel on our teeth. We wanted to see how different liquids impact our teeth. The eggs were pretty gross when we took them out of their beakers after a week!
