18th February
This week in Year 4, we have been finishing off our historical narrative stories. Last week, as a class, we wrote the beginning, build up and problem. This week, children wrote their own alternative ending. Each story has their own character, weapon and monster to make each story their own. A long side this, they typed their stories as a cross curriculum computing piece, learning to word progress word in a neat style.
11th February
This week in RE, we have been thinking creatively about 'The Transfiguration of Jesus'. At first, we read the story and then we annotated artwork from the transfiguration. After this, we created our own paintings based on 'The Transfiguration of Jesus'. Though this art, we learnt that Jesus is God's beloved Son.

Materials- science ( melting)
In science, year 4 have been measuring the temperature of materials that melt. They melted chocolate in pudding cups that were in hot water. They found out that different types of chocolate melt at different temperatures and that chocolate changes from a solid to a liquid.
Ol Moran
Through the British Council, we have linked up with Ol Moran School in Kenya. This partnership will enable our children to make friends with and learn about the lives of children living in a very different part of the world. On Friday, learnt a little Anout Ol Moran, wrote them letters and drew about what type houses we live in and how we get to school. We hope to built a strong friendship with the children and get to how all about life in Kenya, soon.
