Willow Class - Term 5

Across the term in PE, the children have been developing a range of skills with Swindon Town Football Club coaches. They have been developing their passing, team work and scanning skills.  In DT, the children have been learning about Ancient Greek clay sculptures and techniques. They have learnt how to join pieces of clay together using scoring techniques and have created patterns using etching tools. In Science, the children have been learning about the digestive system and the types of teeth and their functions. 

The children in Year 4 have been researching and planning their non-chronological reports in English about an Ancient Greek God or Goddess. In Science, the children have been investigating teeth further by identifying the inside parts of a tooth and how food and drink can impact the enamel. In DT, the children were practicing their etching and slip and score techniques to create an owl sculpture out of clay, inspired by the Athenian Owl from our Ancient Greek topic.
