Mad Hatters Tea Party
Today we have had a fun filled afternoon having a Mad Hatters style tea party.
We had jam tarts, sandwiches, crisps and sweets. We washed our delicious snacks down with red and orange squash while watching parts of the Alice in Wonderland film to show how similar and different they were to the book written by Lewis Carroll.
We also performed a cat walk show to show how fantastic our hats were that we made for our homework.
Computing Mad!
Badgers have had an exciting lesson learning about HTML codes. We have used a tool called ‘X Ray Goggles’ to change parts of the hidden codes on the blog!
What did you enjoy most?
Homework!
This term we will be taking a journey to a world of pure imagination. We have started looking at Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll to discover what features are included in a fantasy narrative.
Can you remember any of the features?
We used the drama technique role on an object to guess what novel we would be looking at by investigating and explaining what items belonged to who. We have also used drama to help unpick characters motives and opinions.
Take a look at some of the pictures!
Safer Internet Day!
Last term in Badgers we celebrated ‘Safer Internet Day.’ We looked sharing pictures and what happened to them once they are put online.
The children then created top tips for sharing pictures safely online.
What did you learnt from the lesson?
Native American Long House Exhibition!
It has been another busy week in Badgers. We have shown off the amazing Long Houses that we had made as part of our topic homework. To help exhibit our work, we invited Year 1, Foxes and Year 5 to visit and tell us what they thought about them.
Below are some of the comments taken from the event.
- Connor’s homework was so cool- epic! Well done Connor!
- I love all of them! They are all so fantastic!
- I really like the wood on the long houses
- They look very interesting. I like the materials!
- Wow! One of the houses’ fire even lights up!
- I think they all look very realistic.

Badger’s Blog
The blog is now up and running for this year in Badgers!
Please make sure you look at the rules for blogging so that you can keep yourself safe online.
Last term, was extremely busy in Year 4. Our topic was ‘Blue Abyss’ where we learnt all about the underwater world and we went on a trip to the Sea Life Centre, which we all enjoyed!
We have also had an exhibition show casing some of the work we had created in class, in particular: sea creatures, submarines and the poems we wrote.
This term our topic is ‘Road Trip USA!’ and already we have been learning all about Native American legends. Can you remember our text map story? We have started to look at ‘Electricity’ in Science and how to make circuits! In computing we are toy-makers and we are creating a prototype, on Scratch, so that we can present it to our teacher in a ‘Mini Dragon Den’ style pitch.
Last week, we enjoyed learning about how to stay safe online and collected stickers for our badges along the way!
Keep visiting our page to see what other exciting learning we will be doing this term!
