Autumn 2

What a great term Year 4. I am so proud of you all for all your hard work this term. We enjoyed all our work based on The Firework Maker's Daughter and creating our own version of Odd Dog Out. In Science we  had fun learning about light and shadows and continued our learning on our topic "Let Us Shine." I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Have fun and enjoy the holidays and I'll see you all next year. 

In English, we acted out scenes from our story "Odd Dog Out" and made our own books of the story. 

In Science, to prepare for our Plants topic in Spring 2, we planted some bulbs. 

In History, we learned about mummification and wrapped each other in toilet paper to turn them into a mummy.
