The other group were thinking about holidays and made a...
This term we have been learning about electricity. We have learned about how it travels how it can be made. We even got to make our own circuits with real light bulbs and wires!
As part of our design technology, we have been learning about healthy eating. We created recipes for our own fruit smoothies! We had to decide the ingredients we wanted to use and the quantities as well. They needed to be healthy fruit smoothies.
Well done to all the students (and grown ups) who are doing so well with their remote learning and also the children who are still coming into school. This week our blog has been written by two of our Year 4's who have shared their learning experiences both in school and at home!
