Updates from Year 4 Teachers

This week in Year 4 we used yeast, sugar and water in a zip lock food bag to represent a cow's stomach during digestion. We found the mixture started to bubble and the gas from this caused the bags to expand. 

It was also National Poetry Day on the 1st October and in celebration of this we created our own version of Michael Rosen's poem 'Don't'. We enjoyed creating some nonsense but rhyming 'Don'ts' for our poems. 

Finally, in English we learnt how to write instructions on how to make an Egyptian plaque out of salt dough. Examples of the plaques we made in preparation for this are included below!
