Egyptian Death Masks

Year 4 have been designing and making their own Egyptian death mask.
The children started off designing their own in their sketch books. In groups they they decided on one design to follow and create. They used paper mache and other techniques to create their chosen design and finished it off with different coloured paint.

What I Did in Class (Maple)

In class today we had three assessments, one spelling assessment, a maths assessment and finally a SPAG test. I got a decent score and most of the people in my class scored above 15.

Our topic is currently Ancient Egypt and we are learning about the mummification process. The book we are reading in class is called The Time Traveling Cat and The Egyptian Goddess!

In guided reading we are thinking about recognising the different theme of a piece of writing. Some afternoons we do Egyptian Art and this includes using the water, paints drawing and many more!

Skyping with Whipsnade Zoo

Year 4 had a fantastic Skype Session with ZSL Whipsnade Zoo. The children were able to see penguins in their natural habitat and speak to one of the zookeepers about their daily lives. We were taught about the different types of teeth an animal can have and how their teeth are linked to their diet. We also spent some time looking at food chains and ended the session with some questions. Both classes had a great time and consolidated their existing knowledge of food chains, animals and teeth.

Numbers Day

We had a wonderful day Friday celebrating number day. We saw lot’s of creative costumes most of which were homemade so thank you for all your effort. It was also lovely to see so many parents joining in with problem solving activities with their children. Most importantly we have yet again raised some money for the NSPCC whilst having fun!

Christmas Fun Day!

Christmas Fun Day!

On Tuesday 11th of December a plethora of children went to the Hansel and Gretel ballet. Meanwhile some children stayed in school. When we stayed in school we firstly played Kahoot! We played until 11 o’clock; the different Kahoots we did were: songs and Christmas ones. After, we practiced singing our Christmas songs. Then we had an activity day; we were put in groups and then we were sent off to do activities. The activities were: making paperchain reindeers and snowmen, just dance, decorating cookies, reefs and computing. Everyone had a lot of fun and enjoyed the activities.

Elm Park Girls Football Team

On Monday the 19th of November, 8 girls took part in a girls football match.  The match took place at St Marys  school. Ashley, Amiee, Gloria, Emma, Deanna, Vilte , Layla, Keira took part in this fair match.

On a muddy pitch we slid around but at half time we were winning 2-0 and Aimee scored both of the goals.

We kicked off the second half and Ashley scored a magnificent goal striking from the corner. Then, Aimee picked up the ball from the halfway line and weaved through the St Mary’s girls to score another goal  to make a hatrick.

Emma our goalkeeper made a fantastic save from the penalty spot and so game ended 4-0 to Elm Park Primary.

We all enjoyed the game and and are looking forward to our next match against La Sallette.

This week in Year 4 by Josh

Monday: On Monday in year 4 we went on a trip to the Victoria and Albert Museum  in South Kensington.  We saw a lot of artefacts from all the way back in Ancient Greek times. My favourite artefact was from the Great Expedition. It was called a Victorian Wine Cooler. It was Queen Victoria’s favourite artefact and that is why she allowed them to use her name on it.

On Tuesday it was just a normal day in class but I went Digital Leaders Club where we used the VR goggles. I then went to Cubs and I made a marsh mallow and spaghetti tower. It was the tallest one and we won a prize.  When I got home I had to immediately go to sleep 🙁
