Year 4 Volcanic Eruptions
What a super start to the summer term we have had! The children have shown exemplary behaviour when attending QMC for their swimming lessons. We are so proud of them, although they were definitely tired by Wednesday afternoon.
On Monday, we enjoyed a game of battleships to try and protect our worlds from Earthquakes, Tsunami and Volcanic eruptions. The children had to read the co-ordinates carefully to reveal a square, remembering the key rule of ‘along the corridor and up the stairs.’ They were given three world to try and keep safe! We had great fun.
In the afternoon we designed and created our own volcanos. We had lots of fun watching them explode, although our classrooms were a little smelly after all the vinegar we used!
TTROCK STARS
Well done to 4SB for winning the TTRock Stars competition over the Easter holidays. With our upcoming times tables test, we have set the children the challenge of 10 minutes per day on TTRock Stars. This will help towards our next competition too!
