CSI

Final suspect 

Who is the perpetrator of this horrible crime?

Let the forensics begin! 

Measuring footprints!

Mrs Erith was found here.

Bagging the evidence carefully.

We gathered the evidence then tested it using skills we have learnt in Science this half term.

Testing ink using chromatography.

Analysing handwriting; does it match the map and letter found at the crime scene. 

Matching fingerprints from the laptop found at the scene of the crime. 

Testing a mug of coffee found at the scene of the crime and comparing with mugs of coffee taken from the suspects.

DCI Paterson has sent team out to see if there is any more evidence that may have been missed!

We await their return...

Bressingham VE Day

The class turned up to school looking amazing; very 40s. 

We had some last minute preparations to make in the morning before our celebration in the afternoon.

Making mock cream with corn flour.

Chocolate spread made from cocoa for the eggless cake.

Our VE Day party!

We ate spam and corned beef sandwiches and had elderflower cordial to drink.  We made some fantastic potato scones which were served with jam and mock cream; they were delicious.

After eating and listening to some World War 2 songs,  we went into the hall and danced the waltz and the jive. 

We ended the day by playing a Beetle drive.

We all had a great day and some of us even like spam!   

(This is one of our 100 memorable events- we dressed up and took part in a historical re- enactment.)

VE Day preparation

Yesterday we prepared food for our celebration of VE Day.

Peeling potatoes for mock eggs.

Opening a can of evaporated milk for Ginger cream.

Grating carrot for the carrot cookies.

Mashing potato and peeling carrots for mock eggs.

Mock eggs before they were sliced.

Carrot cookies !

Class 4 also made bunting and some posters to decorate the classroom for VE Day.

Preparation for VE Day

Yesterday we prepared food for our VE Day celebrations on Friday. All the recipes were authentic using wartime rations.

 

Making homemade bread according to a wartime recipe.

Measuring out the ingredients for eggless chocolate cake.

Kneading the bread dough after it had risen.

Separating materials

Continuing our Science topic, today we explored how we may be able to separate various mixtures of materials. We sieved, decanted, filtered and used evaporation and magnetism to achieve success!

Tomorrow we will see if we have managed to separate salt from a salt and water solution, by evaporation, with a little help from our classroom radiator...

...Here we are having a look the next day- and what we found...Success!
