Today was a very slimy day in our class. Our topic is Splish, splash, splosh and today we were exploring the difference between a liquid and a solid. We made magic slime that was once a solid and then turned into a liquid!! We were all amazed that if we poked the slime quickly with our finger it was solid but when we put our hand into it, it became a liquid!!

We had so much fun! We even had a bit of an explosion! 🤣 It’s a good job we have lots of helpers in our class who were at hand to help clean it up! 


What a fun experiment!!

We have been busy learning about the different 3D shapes. Today we made some 3D shapes using marshmallows and cocktail sticks. We had to count how many sides/edges and vertices each shape has. We used the marshmallows for the vertices and the cocktail sticks for the edges. 

What a fun morning! We even got to sample some marshmallows at the end too!! 😉😉

This term we have been learning about how to write instructions.  We talked about the layout and the different connective words that are best to use.  The children very carefully wrote the instructions for making a chocolate reindeer. As they did such a good job at writing these, we were able to make our own chocolate reindeer today. What a treat for Christmas 🎄🎅

Today our whole school participated in the Santa Daily Mile.  🎅 We all wore a Christmas accessory to school and braved the cold to go outside and walk for 15-20minutes.  🥶 It definitely got us into the festive spirit and we enjoyed the fresh air too!

This week Year 3/4 have been learning about length. Today the children were asked to go around our classroom and measure some items. They had to decide whether or not an item was: less than a metre, about a metre or more than a metre. 

We managed to find 2 things in our classroom that were just about a metre! One of our school desks and the classroom sink!! 🚰
