Year 4 went to the River Mersey today. In Geography theyโve been looking at the water cycle, the features and even some flood defences. The children had a great time even with a heavy precipitation spell.
4B have been looking at electricity in science this half term. Theyโve looked at how to be safe around electricity and have now addressed some misconceptions on what is needed in order for a circuit to work. Next week we will be looking at which materials are good conductors.
