Week beginning: 18.10.2021
This week in Year 4 we continued our Design and Technology Dyson Projects! We have been designing and improving an existing product. Some of us created shelves for our locker, some created whiteboard holders and so much more! We used cardboard to create a prototype of our designs. We had so much fun creating these!



In science this week we continued our learning on sound. This week we investigated which material was the best insulator for sound. We wrapped a variety of materials, such as, tissue paper, bubble wrap, newspaper and felt, around our headphones. We then measured how many steps we had to take away before the sound became muffled or was blocked completely.
In our reading lessons we have been looking at a variety of Halloween texts, we have used our inferencing skills to pick things out from the stories and used our predicating skills to think about what could happen next.
In our computing lesson we learnt all about networks and the internet. We learnt about what makes up a network, different types of networks and how the internet works. We then created a human network using string to show off what we had learnt. We also discussed ways to find reliable information online and what are the key things to look out for when taking information off of the internet!
