Class four enjoyed an exciting visit from 'The Space Base'. The space base is an inflatable planetarium.
Once inside the planetarium we learnt about the night sky. We were able to impress the visitors with some of our knowledge from our space topic.
We learnt about the different planets in our solar system and discussed the different temperatures and environments each planet had.
We learnt about different stars that make constellations in our sky.
It was really exciting to be in a planetarium for the morning!!
Class four have been busy enjoying the lovely weather this week. We begun our minibeasts topic by going out to their natural habitat to explore.
We found the minibeast hotel that last years class 4 had made. We noticed that a lot of minibeasts had made it their home.
We looked under rocks and leaves...
and found lots of different creatures!
The next day we went outside to the natural habitat again, but this time, we took clipboards to record our findings. Some of us made tally charts to record the different types of minibeasts we had found. Whilst others drew some detailed drawings of minibeasts.
We enjoyed looking closely at their details through magnifying glasses.
We observed their behaviour closely.
Then we made sure we carefully put the minibeasts back where we had found them.
We also celebrated our learning this week by holding an Animations Premiere. We enjoyed watching a DVD of our finished animations.
We celebrated with posh champagne (lemonade!) and some lovely treats. We voted for our favourite scene, editing/title skills, character, song, and overall animation. We had medals and certificates for the winners of each award.
Overall, we really enjoyed the animations topic and are really happy and proud of our finished animations.
