BIRCH - Y3/Y4
Ceilidh Workshop
On Monday 11th November, Birch class were joined by some children from Broad Town school to attend a Ceilidh workshop.
The children had the opportunity to learn about the history of this traditional style of music, the instruments used and learned to sing a sea shanty with accompanying movements.
The children really enjoyed this workshop and it was a wonderful musical experience.
Science
On Wednesday our year 4 children enjoyed recreating the human digestive system by mashing banana and weetabix with a fork (teeth) and spoon (tongue). This ‘mush’ then travelled into the stomach (plastic bag) before travelling through the intestines (tights). It was poured into the rectum before pooping out of the anus (paper cup). The children thoroughly enjoyed this hands-on experiment and learned a lot.
