Year 4 News

Design and Technologies

On Friday the students in Year Four created their Marble Run Track to explore force and motion. The goal was to maximise friction and move the marble down the board as slowly as possible, using provided supplies. The students worked together collaboratively and experimented with their tracks to come up with solutions to improve surface speed.  

It was a fantastic day and we all had a great time constructing and displaying our Marble Run Tracks.

Maths

In Number and Algebra Year 4 are continuing to practise recalling multiplication facts up to 10 × 10 and related division facts. The students are developing efficient mental and written strategies and use appropriate digital technologies for multiplication and for division where there is no remainder

In Statistics and Probability the students are selecting and trialling methods for data collection, including survey questions and recording sheets. They are constructing suitable data displays from given or collected data Include tables, column graphs and picture graphs   where one picture can represent many data values.
