Year 4- Pot making

In Art, we learnt techniques to manipulate clay and make our own pots.

Year 4- Immersion

To immerse ourselves in our new subject, we all did an art session where we explored mosaics, linking to the Romans. We looked at new, old, dull, colourful and created a mood board of ones we liked and used different media to add our own ideas.

Year 4- Food Technology

This term, we have been learning about diet and being healthy. We have learnt the food groups and the function of each. We have also designed and analysed different meals.

Following this, we looked at how we get energy from food and also how much sugar each contains. We used sugar cubes to represent this and were shocked at our findings!

Linking this to our History, we have also learnt about what they ate in the Roman Times and have designed our own Roman meal which we will be selling for Mini Chef next week!

Reception - Mudchute Farm

Orange Tree had a FANTASTIC time at Mudchute Farm. The children were amazing travelling on both trains and DLRs. They had great fun feeding the sheep, goats, llamas and cows as well as seeing the chickens, ducks and peacocks.
