Year 4 Science

In this lesson, we will learn how to make a string telephone. We will follow a scientific method and then write our own scientific methods.

In this lesson, we will be looking at acoustics which is the science of sound waves.

In this lesson, we will learn about the amplitude of sound and how to protect our ears from very loud sounds.

In today's lesson, we will explore pitch and frequency of sound waves.

In today's lesson, we will be learning all about different sounds made by instruments and then making our own!

In this lesson, we will learn about how sound travels, how we hear it in our ear and complete an experiment.

In this lesson, we will learn about mains and battery electricity. We will identify and sort appliances based on whether they are electrical or non-electrical and also whether they are powered by mains or battery electricity. We will explore the idea of a world without electricity.

In this lesson, we will be learning about voltmeters and ammeters. We will then investigate what happens when we change the number of cells and lamps in a circuit. We will be writing predictions and conclusions in this lesson. You will need a pencil, a piece of paper and a ruler.

In this lesson, we will learn what an electrical conductor and an electrical insulator are. We will conduct an investigation to see which materials are insulators and which are conductors. Finally, we will draw conclusions about the best material to make certain objects from, based on what we have learnt. You will need a piece of paper, a pencil and a ruler.

In this lesson, we will be learning how electrical circuits are represented as diagrams. We will learn the symbol for each component and draw our own circuit diagrams. You will need a pencil, a piece of paper and a ruler.
