Social Contracts |
|
For the first 3 weeks of term - the whole school has focussed on a book by Oliver Jeffers called 'Here We Are'. The book is beautifully illustrated and written in simple language which allows children of all ages to reflect and make sense of the world that they are living in and their role in it.
Focussing on the social aspect of school, the Year 4s produced some 'Social Contracts' for Kingsmoor and their classroom. They then arranged these rules using different acronyms related to the school and our own classroom.
Over the next few days, each class (and their teacher) will choose their favourite poster to display in their classrooms and adopt as their own set of 'class rules'. Mrs Warren will also be choosing a poster to be displayed on the main door of reception as an example of the values that Kingsmoor School hold. The final choices will be announced by next Friday (9th October) so watch this space!

Yr 4 Debate
Today the Year 4 children took part in a class debate.
They were presented with the picture 'Save our Habitat' and were asked the question, 'Should humans be allowed to continue to destroy habitats?'
After an in depth discussion the children decided if they wanted to 'Propose' or 'Oppose' the motion.
The debate took place with all children contributing well, resulting in a passionate discussion. After over an hour, the debate was concluded and the children had a vote. The 'Opposers' won the vote but all children reported that they thoroughly enjoyed the process. Well done Year 4!

Year 4 Science
States of Matter. The children were taken outside to become the 3 states of matter (solids, liquids and gases). Each child pretended to be a particle and they investigated how these particles move and group together, when affected by heating (or cooling) as they change state.
