Year 4 Creativity Week
This week we have had the pleasure of having four student teachers from Newman University to help us learn about the Ancient Egyptians. Throughout the week we have learnt all about farming from the time. We have been very productive and created salt dough tools, been on a treasure hunt, junk modelled farms, built virtual farms on Minecraft and created a dance about making bread. We have enjoyed the week and have learnt a lot!
Below are just a handful of photos depicting our week.
Winter Displays
As a school we are updating the corridor displays to a winter theme. We have used the different poems that we have created over this half term and are showing them in our displays. We have one depicting a winter scene which we based our Haiku poems on, then we used the 'Home for Christmas' advert from 2016 to create Cinquain poems and finally we created Winter and Jack Frost acrostic poems positioned in a frosted window.
WELL DONE YEAR 4!
