To finish our PSHCE topic on Health and Nutrition, Year 4 have used disclosing tablets on their teeth to see how much plaque is on them and notice where to brush this evening! #Scarcrofthealthy

Year 4's Money Matters Fair this afternoon was a smash hit! They developed their entrepreneurial skills and raised some money for the school library by running their stalls with maturity as well as creating some fab deals and advertising schemes! #ScarcroftPSHCE #ScarcroftThrive

Year 4 have started the summer term with a bang! Photos of us building Lego shelters for Wesley in Weslandia as well of us starting our Mayans topic off with a VR session exploring Chichen Itza. We also loved International Day but fun took priority over photos!! #scarcroftthrive

Year 4 finished off their half term with a visit to York Minster this afternoon, hitting both their RE and History learning in one go! We loved it and enjoyed deciding on our Magnificent Minster Marvel! #scarcroftthrive #Scarcrofthistory #ScarcroftRE @yorkminsterofficial

Inspired by the book Until I Met Dudley, this week Year 4 have designed and explained how to use Teacher Pleaser machines. We can't wait until they all go into production! #Scarcroftwriting #Scarcroftcreative

Year 4 have finished their art topic! To make these stunning batik-style pieces, we took inspiration from the rainforest, painting designs with PVA glue on to calico before covering them with acrylic paint. They were then washed so that the design came through. #Scarcroftart

For VE Day last week, Year 4 enjoyed making collages using the flags of the world and doves of peace #Scarcrofthistory

Can you guess what Year 4 have been learning about linked to their Anglo Saxons topic this week?! #Scarcrofthistory

In Year 4, we have loved starting our new Art unit by making rainforest-inspired mood boards #Scarcroftart 1m

Baking for 4 Swinegate's 2000 Dojo reward this morning. We were super independent and worked brilliantly in teams to produce some yummy-looking mini egg cookies. It was lovely that Mr Hassack came in to see us be so fabulous as well! #ScarcroftThrive @markhsk

Oracy! This half term, the children have loved learning about what this means and using games to practise our current skill levels in each area. Here are some Year 4s playing the 1-20 game this afternoon to exercise their Social & Emotional muscle #Scarcroftoracy @voice21oracy
