Today is the day! You have been sending in your dance videos all week and the staff have been working on something as well.
Mrs.Fraser will send out a link to you all through Seesaw to allow you to view the video privately.
Thank you to everyone who took part. We hope you enjoy laughing, smiling and dancing along to our Community Dance Video!
It is really interesting how a collection of simple shapes can look like an animal.
By grouping shapes together in a certain way you get an outline of a line that goes all the way around. When you have these grouped shapes all together in one colour it has a special name…Do you know what it is?
Today we are going to create some simple silhouettes and cast their shadow out in the grass to imagine they are in our jungle. You can also set up a torch indoors and play with your shadow puppets.
Remember to send in pictures of your work to your teacher through email or seesaw.
The pictures you sent in were great some went exploring on their walks and some hunted around their bedrooms.
You may have to make your own paint, which I found really fun, as I had to be curious and try and make my own colours.
Some of you have already sent in your drawing following the video on the grid, Well Done!
Today we are going to look at identifying the shapes we need ourselves to create a simple shape drawing.
The sway below gives you ideas on how to identify the shapes you need to create an animal.
Most of the examples only use, Squares, Triangles, Rectangles and Circles. By used differently every time we can create and fish and a snake with just a few changes.
Discuss with family why you are using a certain shape as a neck, or arm or elbow rather than another shape. What qualities does that shape have that makes it the best shape to use?
Have great fun and on Wednesday we will extend this further and create some shadow puppets in the grass.
Today we will using our 2D and 3D shape knowledge.
But first lets enjoy some of our favourite shape songs, some you know, some you don’t. I know you will have a favourite. I’ve had one stuck in my head all week!
Enjoy some friendly competition with the family and review your shape fact knowledge.
