Outdoor Learning – English and Science

Today the school has celebrated outdoor learning day.
In Year 4 we have been writing poems all about colour. Using the different skills that we have learnt throughout our time on poetry through the years. We then went outside to get inspiration to plan and edit our draft poems.

The children then continued to enjoy their outdoor learning by taking our Science outside.
Following on from our Science on electricity the children were given the challenge to create a switch that could be used similar to a buzzer on a gameshow. It had to be practical and effective but had to be able to transfer to different places. After a rocky start from some groups who were trying to work out which bit of equipment could be used as conductors and insulators we were finally successful with 4 of the groups.
Well done to the perseverance and resilience of those groups who found the challenge a little tricky to problem solve.
