Term 3
We have made chairs for a toy bunny. Our design brief was that the chairs had to be strong, stable and comfortable. We used cylinders to make the legs for our chairs because we knew that they were strong.
In DT we made and tested the strength of three different 3D shapes. We found out that the cylinder was the strongest.
We had an atlas scavenger hunt in our topic lesson today, using the atlases to find key cities and features in the United Kingdom.
We have focused on poetry in English. How would you describe winter?
It was noisy in Willow Class this afternoon as we explored rhythm using counters and instruments.
Here we are with our finished artwork. We are going to put the individual pieces together to create one huge class picture. We hope Kandinsky would be proud of us!
In maths we are focusing on 2D shape. We enjoyed making different shapes with lollipop sticks and seeing how many of each shape we could make with 15 of the sticks.
We are using pastels in art to create our own version of Wassily Kandinsky’s famous artwork, Colour Study, Squares with Concentric Circles.
