Virtual science lesson with an engineer
On Thursday Year 4 took part in a national virtual science lesson Factory of the Future with an engineer Matt and his robot, hosted by Stem Learning. As part of the lesson the children learnt about engineering, vocabulary such as automation and took parts in votes to create a 100% net zero factory (such as by using insulation). They receive an online certificate for their participation.
Monday afternoons are now PE and computing. In PE we are working on our ball skills and teacm work, using a rnage of throws and movements to pass the ball. In computing, we are looking at computational thinking, using the programme scratch to break down instructions to create a computer game.

Please find attached below the Powerpoint and the kit list for Ufton Court.
If any changes occur, I will update you.
Ufton Court Residential
Despite the rain on Wednesday, the children had a wonderful time at Ufton Court.
Below are pictures taken from the day.
First the children do photo-mapping an orienteering experience in pairs to find the clues and use mapwork to record their findings. The children could explore some distance, so difficult to photograph,
You can also see where the children had snack and where they would later be sleeping, once the tents were put up.
