Everyone welcome! # Year 4 - Science: Teeth ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_3061.jpeg) 20 November 2024 Our current science topic has definitely got the Year 4s buzzing. This week we explored our own teeth using mirrors, counted them with our tongues, learned about the different types of teeth and then recorded our findings on a diagram using a key. We watched a video of an investigation, which demonstrated what would happen if we had a mouth full of just one type of tooth and we wrote about the functions of each tooth type. There was even enough time to recap tooth brushing habits: two times a day for two minutes, tickling every tooth! ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_3061.jpeg) [Year 4](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-4) [PSHE](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/pshe) [Science](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1528.JPG)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-19-year-5-6-football-club) Previous ### [Year 5&6 Football Club](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-19-year-5-6-football-club) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/8E55AD73-E620-4998-B4B8-B339D6CFF33D.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-21-reception-how-the-church-celebrates-christmas) Next ### [Reception - How the Church celebrates Christmas ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-21-reception-how-the-church-celebrates-christmas) ### Personal Development - [News](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
