Dragon stories

Thank you to all the children (and families) who have worked so hard on creating amazing dragon stories for homework. So many children have been really keen to read these out to their friends at school. It’s great to see how proud the children are of their work, and what exciting stories they have created! Good job, Skipper 4!

Music

Skipper 4 have been learning about ‘timbre’. This is the different sorts of sounds we can make, by playing instruments in different ways or combining sounds in different ways. We have been making sounds that sound’ red’ to us, or ‘blue’ or ‘yellow’. We were all surprised by how much we agreed what a yellow of a black sound should sound like! It was bveen great fun. We’ve also composed pieces in groups and performed these to the class.

Science – Electricity

The children have loved exploring our new science topic on electricity. We have learned what we need in order to make an electrical circuit, and that batteries produce electrical energy using a chemical reaction. We have explored which circuits do and don’t work and why. In this topic, we will also be learning about conductors and insulators, and how switches work.

Wonderful Home Learning projects

We loved sharing all of these with the class. What amazing projects were created by lots of families! Thank you Skipper 4 for all your efforts. We hope you loved making these as much as we loved sharing them with you. Can you see our scary warrior poses?!
