Mr Bourne Year 4/5 2020-2021

Because the plague was spread by bacteria, we decided to investigate how bacteria spreads around our classroom. Given the current circumstances, this seemed an especially important investigation. In order to do this, we took swabs with sterilised cotton bud tips of various items around the…

Another amazing week in Year 4/5! The children have been working so hard in all areas of the curriculum. 

In English, we've been writing character descriptions about the main character in our engaging class class, ’Street Child’. 

In Maths, we've started our new topic, ’Multiplication and…

We had a great time working collaboratively to create a Pudsey bear collage!  Such fun was had raising money for Children in Need. 
 

Well done, everybody! 

What a week! I'm exhausted just watching all the scores roll in. It was very tight between Mrs Charlton's and Mrs Kearns' classes, with the Y3/4 class only just pipping them to the post. Mr Moore's class didn't really turn up to this tournament, scoring fewer than 3000 points, compared to the…

We've had a wonderful first week back. 

In English, we've started reading our new class text, ’Street Child’. We predicted what we thought the book was going to be about by information stated and implied on the front cover. Then, after reading the first few chapters, we wrote a diary entry in…

It's that time again, folks! The latest round of TTRS Battles! We go live at 3:20pm on Thursday 5th November until the following Thursday at 12pm.

We have some real clash of the Titan battles, including Miss Hamar's class vs Mrs Meadows' class - the two highest scoring classes of the last…

We had a great time during Culture Week! 

This week, we learned all about the Hindu festival: Diwali. 

We made beautiful Rangoli patterns using homemade, coloured rice...

Because Diwali means ’festival of light’, we sculpted and painted special diya lamps…

This week, in English, the children have been writing newspaper articles on the main events that have been happening in our engaging class text, ‘Skyhawk’. Well done, everyone! 

Earlier on in the week, the children worked very hard to sketch the Galápagos Penguin.  After their first attempt, the children used peer critique skills to find out what they had been successful at and where they needed to improve. After acting on their peer’s feedback, the children sketched…

I have been blown away by the standard of topic homework that has been submitted on Teams over the last few weeks. We’ve had some incredible examples - the children and adults at home have worked so hard! 

Take a look at just some of our fantastic examples:

What a end to the week! Some classes streamed ahead...one battle went right down to the wire! The battle between Mrs Meadows' and Mrs Murton's class was a tight fought one, separated by only a few points. In fact a whopping 45, 000 points were scored by one pupil alone in Mrs Meadows' class, which…

With only a few hours left, we have some incredibly high scores and a very close battle between Mrs Meadows’ and Mrs Murton’s class; less than 1000 points in it. Who will cross the finish line on top?

check out the current scores below! Only a few hours left guys, good luck!
