This week in Year 4, we have been learning about what life was like in Ancient Greek times. We worked together in groups to create posters, showing what life was like in a variety of areas, including leisure, food and clothes. We also talked about how we use sources to find out about the past, and how useful these are. In our Art lessons, we got to have a go at potato printing to make a block print last week, and this week we have planned our wallpaper tile (inspired by William Morris), which we will create using Styrofoam prints and creating a background. We hope we will be able to share a photo of our finished class wallpaper before the end of term.
We have also had our first chance at playing the recorders this week in Music. We have been learning the word to the Beatles song Blackbird, and we are now learning how to play some of the notes on a recorder, so we might be able to join in.
In our Science lessons, we have been learning about how to keep our teeth healthy and why this is important. We are moving on to look at our digestive systems this week and learning about how they week. Hopefully if you ask us some questions about this at home, we might be able to answer them!
