The Magic Starts Here!

Don't forget to come to our Year 4 magic show on Tuesday 13th December at 1:45pm. Sit back and be amazed by the children's very own magic show!


Super Spells

Double, double toil and trouble!

Fire burn and caldron bubble!

 

As you can see, Year 4 have been creating spells. Using our class story- The Snow Spider by Jenny Nimmo, the children have been engrossed in spell writing and poetry. We look forward to their magic tricks later on in the term.


First Aid.

Yesterday, Year 4 learnt how to put special plasters on and how to put bandages on. They also learnt what to do if somebody had collapsed, fainted or was seriously injured.


Learning to play the Clarinet.

Broadbent Fold Primary provides the opportunity for all Year 4 children to learn to play the Clarinet. Children even get chance to take their Clarinet home. We look forward to hearng lots of tunes!


Year 4

Our first blog entry of the year is by Emma and Daisy.

 

Our topic is volcanoes. We have been learning about different volcanoes for example, composite volcanoes are shaped like a mountain and the lava is very hot inside. We have wrote an explanation about the different types of volcanoes in English and in Art we have used watercolours to paint pictures.


Year 4's School Visit to Ordsall Hall

What a terrific Tudor Tuesday!

We went back in time to The Tudor period learning about The Radclyffe family, who lived in Ordsall Hall. A Tudor servant and a rich Tudor lady were our teachers for the day! We dressed like Tudor people, role played having a banquet, sat in a Tudor bath, lay on a 4 poster Tudor bed and experienced being a spit girl or spit boy in the Tudor kitchen!

Can you tell who were the servants and who were the rich Tudors?

 

 


Year 4 spoke to a lady from South Africa using Skype.

A huge thanks to Natalie's family for arranging a family friend, from South Africa, to skype Year 4.

We listened to Jennifer, a lady from a nature reserve in South Africa, who told us all about habitiats. We then asked her questions such as:

Do you feed the animals?

How many animals are there?

Are you scared of the animals?

 

A wonderful experience was had by all.
