To celebrate World Mental Health day on Monday, Year 4 took some “me time”. In between making our DT projects, we took some time to relax. We had a 5 minute meditation with some lovely soothing music using Tibetan singing bowls and also did some mindfulness colouring and drawing.
On Monday, after our relaxing meditation, we set our minds to creating a communication device for an evil genius. We used our science skills to create an electrical circuit and our DT design skills to plan our masterpiece! Our intention was to communicate with our loyal minions using Morse code, which was used during World War I and II to communicate in secret.
Today year 4 have been learning how to use apostrophes for contractions in English.
This week we have been using our knowledge of circuits to create communication devices. The children designed and created a communication device, for an evil genius using circuits that light up. Well done year 4!
Well done to those children who achieved 100% attendance last week!
This week in LMTW we have been learning how circuits work. The children learned about how the national beacons are lit across the country to mark important events for the Monarchy and the country. The children have recreated the lighting of the beacons by making a large circuit system that was lit using batteries, switches and bulbs.
Mornings really are the best part of the day, as this morning’s lovely sunrise over Hebburn and South Tyneside proves. What a lovely way to start the week.
