Year 4 Research With A Purr-pose

 


Our classrooms have recently transformed into buzzing newsrooms! During Guided Reading, the children dove into non-fiction texts, each choosing a specific cat to research frm their non-fiction extract this week.

To bring their findings to life, we used Readers’ Theatre to turn them into "On-the-Scene" reporters. The children didn't just recite facts; they mastered the prose, focusing on their delivery and body language to engage their audience. By embodying a reporter's stance and authoritative tone, they moved beyond simple decoding to true communication. It’s been a joy to watch their confidence soar as they turn "boring" research into a captivating performance! 


"Domestic cats evolved from wild cats!" Wais, Willow

"Cheetah's are the fastest land animal!" Edie, Maple 


"The Eurasian Lynx is much bigger!" Hayden, Elm

Year 3 Learning Journey


 

                                      

Year 3 Learning Journey

This week, the children were focusing their new topic of magnets in their Science lesson. They were learning all about magnetic and non-magnetic metals and they completed a test to determine whether the items on their table were magnetic or not. The children had a lot of fun in this experiment! 
Ashar said 'I can see that the magnets use a non-contact force!'


Meanwhile, in their topic lessons, the children completed their first lesson on their new topic of the Romans. The children were presented with different artefacts and were tasked to use their inference skills to determine what the artefacts were and what they may have been used for when the Romans were in Britain from AD43. 

Charlie said 'I think this looks like a farm!', whilst Vanessa said 'I think these are cooking pots that were used to make meals for the soldiers!'
