Primary 4 have settled well into the new school year and are enjoying lots of new learning experiences.

This term, our class topic is Natural Disasters. We have enjoyed learning about how earthquakes occur and we have identified places around the world that experience earthquakes regularly. We have learned about how we can prepare ourselves in the event of an emergency, and have practiced earthquake drills to protect ourselves.

We have read different news stories about earthquakes in Europe. Through drama and role play we have taken on the role of news reporters and eye witnesses to explore the effect natural disasters have on the local people. We then became journalists and wrote our own newspaper articles.
This week we will move on to discuss hurricanes; how and why they happen and the effects of a hurricanes on the country.

Our pictures show just how hard we are working!

We are looking forward to seeing what the rest of the term will bring.
