Today, we opened our letters to our future selves that we wrote back in August! We loved reading what we put back then and comparing our handwriting too! The year has gone so fast! #everyonecan#endofanera@PrincipalMuscat@BSMuscatHeadPri
"I can't wait for secondary!" was overheard after our visit to the secondary science labs today for a lesson in forensics led by Ms. Mitchell. The children used their inference and investigative skills to figure out who had eaten the missing sandwich! #inquisitive#wearebsm
As part of our DT & Humanties topic, Y4 were treated to an Indian cooking class from some of our lovely parent volunteers. They made Bombay aloo and fruit chaat. It was so lovely for them to try some new foods. #resilience#curious#everyonecan
How do switches work? In Year 4 we’ve created our own switches using card, split pins and paper clips. Then, we tested them in a circuit to see if they could start and stop the flow of electricity! #primaryscience#everyonecan@PrincipalMuscat@BSMuscatHeadPri
Yesterday Y4 celebrated all things Indian as part of their topic on India. They danced, sang, planned a holiday to India for Mr. Vacher and ate delicious food prepared by Woodlands Restaurant. We are grateful to the children from India for sharing their culture with us. #DEIJB
We had so much fun today celebrating our topic with a special dress up for India Day. We performed some Indian dancing to Year 2 and tasted delicious food from a local Indian restaurant. #everyonecan@PrincipalMuscat@BSMuscatHeadPri
Money, money, money! Year 4 have been getting to grips with money in our Maths learning. Using manipulatives has really helped them figure out the value of the coins and notes used in the UK. #connectionfinding#motivated
#everyone#communityminded This week we had some lovely parent helpers in to help Year 4 stitch their Indian inspired purses as part of our Humanities topic, India. They are using running, back and cross stitches.
#originality
Year 4 have been busy creating simple circuits in Science this week! They used their #thinkingskills to make sure there was a flow of electrons in order for their components to work. #everyonecan@BSMuscat@PrincipalMuscat
A little late to post but wanted to share these beautiful Eid sunset silhouettes the children created last week. They used warm colours for their wash before adding the silhouette in black for effect. #everyonecan#imagination
Our birdhouses are complete and ready to house some birds. The children have measured, clamped, sawed, sanded, glued, painted and decorated. They are so proud of the final result. #everyonecan#strategyplanning#originality
Pi is actually an irrational number (a decimal with no end and no repeating pattern) that is most often approximated with the decimal 3.14. It was Pi Day on March 14th and some of the Y4 students challenged themselves to recall as many of the digits as possible. #automaticity
This week Y4 have been practising their DT skills as they prepare to make their own bird houses for our Habitat topic. There was measuring, clamping, sawing, hammering and joining. Watch this space for our finished products. #everyonecan#collaborative#confidentlearners
Year 4 on residential last week. We had the best time! We are so lucky for these opportunities to enhance our learning and enjoy time with our friends at the beach. #everyonecan@BSMuscatHeadPri@PrincipalMuscat
