'Santa's on strike' Interviews

This video will tell you more about what is going on in the play.

Romans

In year 4 we have been learning how Roman soldiers dressed.
First we look in non-fiction books to find out more information about what they looked like.
Then we designed our helmets to look like a real Roman soldier.

We used:
-gold pastels
-bronze pastels
and silver pastels.

We also made feathers out of Red,Orange,Blue and purple card, we used gold and silver outline pens to make it stand out.

As well as outlining we also used the pens for making pattens to make it look nice.

Here is a short video for you to see.

Romans and Celts

This week in year 4 in history we have been learning about Romans and Celts. We've been drawing them from a description about them e.g. Romans always shave before a battle The Celts had long moustache's and had long hair.

The Romans lived in Italy and they invaded most of Europe.

Celts

The Celts weapon's were spears (wooden handle,iron tip)sword with iron bronze blade,round shield made wood and metal. There Jewellery is Torc (necklace or silver) Brooch (holding cloak)

We really liked it .

Food chains

This week in year 4, we have been doing science and we have recently learnt what food chains are.(e.g) say like a leaf is eaten by a snail , a snail is eaten by a Duke and a Duke is eaten by a fox so that shows what a food chain is.


Here are some facts about food chains

1. A carnivore is a meat eater.

2. A Herbivore is a plant eater.

3. A primary consumer is a animal that eats plants only and it is eaten by a other animal.

4. A secondary consumer is a animal that eats other animals and gets eaten by a other animal.

5. A producer is a plant who makes food for other plant eaters but the sun is always first in any food chain.

6. A top consumer is a animal which eats other animals but does not get eaten by anything.
