Welcome to the Pallister Park Y4 page!
Our topic for this half term is Burps, Bottoms and Bile!
In Science, we will be learning about the digestive system and the importance of teeth. We will be carrying out an investigation with boiled eggs to see how different liquids affect the shells. Pupils will be able to compare the eggshells to their teeth’s enamel to understand the effects of sugar and acid.
In English, we will be writing adventure stories and an explanation text based on ‘My Life as a Burger’. Pupils will be explaining how food travels through the digestive system.
We will be practicing our skills in art and will be focusing on Picasso. We will also be learning Spanish throughout this half term and encourage pupils to practice at home.
Our next topic is Potions. The children will be learning about states of matter including solids, liquids and gases. We will be carrying out a range of scientific investigations, which will focus on how materials change when they are heated/cooled.
We will also be learning about the water cycle, focusing on evaporation and condensation.
