Year 4 Chocolate Competition!

Happy New Year Everyone!
What a busy start to the term we have had in Year 4. 
In the first two weeks we have finished our 'Chocolate' topic by having a competition between 4B and 4F to see who could make the best chocolate selection - judged by some very special and official chocolate experts.
Have a look at our photo's below to see our chocolate making process and how the competition ended...

First we made our chocolates by adding our own ingrediants to melted chocolate:


Then we went to the hall and waited for the judges to arrive:
 Next the judges arrived ...
 ... and began testing the chocolates.
 Finally - the decision was given ...
 4F were the winners!!!
Have a look at our chocolate menu below.

More Documentaries





More Documentaries


Here are some more of our documentaries.

Deforestation Documentaries

Last week we planned, researched and created documentaries about deforestation. We worked in groups of 3 and had a number of different roles. These were scribe, presenter, camera, expert and editor. We created a storyboard plan, wrote a script and then filmed the presenter's parts of the documentary. Finally we selected music and photos and edited the videos together. These are our completed documentaries. What do you think?

London Zoo Trip

interesting creatures too. Here are a few of them.

Which was your favourite animal?
