Mrs Charnley has been working with children in Pips to paint farm animals and to write the words in English and the children’s first language.
Art
Creative Staff?
As part of this afternoon’s staff meeting, the teachers working in groups to represent our school using Play-Doh. What do you think these models represent?
Maya Logograms
After learning all about how the Ancient Maya recorded information, Rowan class created our own logograms, which would have been useful during Maya times. After generating lots of ideas, we created them using clay with the help of Mrs Hake.
Drawing in Detail
Children in Acorns have been looking at different vegetables and then using them to draw them in detail.
Oak Enterprise Week
Our week began with a trip to Sainsbury’s where our persuasive letter was rewarded with a £15 gift card to add to our budget.
The rest of the week was a blur of budgeting, creating wrapping paper, evade games, advertising posters, making mktails and practising for our assembly.
What fun!
Pips – Kindness Hearts
Thank you to all the children in Pips and their parents and carers for producing the most amazing Kindness Hearts. They are now beautifully displayed in the classroom.
Art Attack
Rowan class have been developing their sketching skills looking at how contrasts between light and dark are used in pencil drawings. Our completed masterpieces are on display outside our classroom; please come and have a look. Here are a few samples of our talents:
Oak class created perfume
We learnt about the Silk Road in our Early Islamic topic. Firstly chose from the following aromas: orange, vanilla, honey, rosemary, rose water, peppermint. We also mixed the colour for our fragrance by mixing red, blue and yellow food colouring. Finally, we used Islamic art designs and created a name to label our products.
Changing Digital Images in Pips
We used the digital images we took of each other last week in a paint program to change the way we looked.
Rangoli Patterns
Pips class worked as part of a team to create Rangoli patterns as part of our Diwali topic.
