4CL were invited to visit The Word.
We were given a guided tour of the building, we saw the library, a 3D printer and the telescopes which gave a wonderful view over the River Tyne.
We went into the new Open Zone and worked with Lego.
We made different models and then programmed them to do tasks using sensors and motors all linked to laptops.
We had a look around the exhibition dedicated to Sir Ridley Scott who has directed films such as Alien and Bladerunner.
Year 4 were grammar detectives. We did work on verbs, adverbs and adverbial phrases.
Year 4 enjoyed learning more about the Anglo Saxons when we were visited by two people from Durham Oriental Museum. We enjoyed looking at artefacts from Anglo Saxons times and we also wrote using quills just like Anglo Saxons monks would have done.
During their science lesson year 4 have been learning about sound. They enjoyed making their own musical instruments from junk modelling.
As part of our study of the Anglo-Saxons we visited Bede’s World to enrich our curriculum.
