     We have had a super busy few weeks in year 4! We have been learning all about money and the value of it. We looked at different ways money can be saved and the importance of a budget. We had to work together to count our money and decide how we could save it. In science, we carried out a science investigation looking at which marital is best to filter our microplastics. And in between all of our learning, we managed to enjoy some downtime with friends sharing books.
