Home Practice 9th July 2021
Another super week in Year 4! We made ‘stop motion’ videos in computing. First, we practised making a video and worked out how to make it more successful – making sure we kept the ipad still and our fingers were out of the way before we took the picture! We then made our final films and are extremely proud of what we have achieved. We also finished our World Ocean Day pictures using felt tips, plastic wallets and cut out shapes. Our finished artwork looks very effective and shows what the ocean should look like without pollution! In Maths, we continued to investigate equivalent fractions using fractions walls, ‘pizza’ pieces and Cuisenaire. In addition, we refined our mental and written division strategies. In Science, we used a sound box to compare different materials and how effectively they muffled sound. We also managed to squeeze in our Year 4 sports day on Wednesday afternoon – make sure you check out the video on the website!
Keep up the good work Year 4!
