A Busy Week in Primary 3!

We started our week by measuring our cress plants and documenting their growth in our individual cress diaries. We have also had the chance to develop our understanding of the Eat Well Guide and the 5 different food groups within it. At the end of our Eat Well Guide lesson we were introduced to a famous painter called Giuseppe Arcimboldo. The children were shown paintings by the famous painter and then had the opportunity to create their own fruit and vegetable portraits. To finish off our week, we participated in a class food tasting session that included fruits and vegetables. After our food tasting session was finished,  we created some still life drawings of our chosen fruit. Today we have been learning all about the Hindu festival of light – Diwali! During our lesson today we used clay to create Diwali diya lamps of our own.
