Let’s carry on reading J.K. Rowling’s new story – The Ickabog.
We are currently on Chapter 4 of the story. Feel free to read on if you wish but please do not reveal any story details on the blog. The activities provided will be a deep dive into each chapter. Read the story so far – https://bit.ly/3eoPBIY
Scots is a language that was commonly spoken all over, however, today we now commonly use English. The funny thing is, is that certain words creep back into what we say, those words are often from the Scots Language.
Watch the following videos to learn more, do you recognise some of the words?
One of our favourites stories is the Gruffalo, listen to it in Scots.
Complete the sheet below, you do not have to print it out, you can refer to it and have a discussion with family members or phone a relative to sound out the words and learn what they mean.
Share your responses with your teachers through seesaw or email.
Our first Scottish Animal that we are going to be learning about.
Follow the Sway below to listen to the story and complete the activities to go along with in, we will meet Hamish on Friday!
For this Friday’s creative challenge I was inspired by Mrs Fraser’s assembly on different types of art, also by a comment that Hayden made on the blog.
Today we are going to be creating pictures using small stones and pebbles. The subject of your picture is entirely your choice – it could be your family, your cat or dog, birds, flowers – anything!
Click on the Sway to find out more …
Don’t forget to take photos of your artwork and send them to your teacher or to me, so that I can make a gallery on Sway to show your creations to everyone. Have fun, and have a great weekend.
This week, we challenged you to create your own piece of art and to write a short biography.
Here is the work that was produced – Enjoy!
I hope that you have enjoyed your second week of Expressive Arts fortnight. This week, I have read chapter 2 and 3 of J.K. Rowling’s new book , ‘The Ickabog’. Have you managed to read both chapters?
Chapter 2 – Design and draw your version of what you think the Ickabog might look like. Click on the Sway below to see the illustrations that were sent in.
In Chapter 3, we learned that Fred’s seamstress sadly passes away. Fred appeared to feel guilty for overworking his servant, however his friends, Spittleworth and Flapoon reassured him that he couldn’t be a nicer king. The chapter ended with Fred getting into bed.
Happy Friday Everyone 🙂
Mrs Still has continued on her photo Methlick Quiz, how many can you recognise?
Let us know how you get on!
Hi Everyone,
I thought I would cover an area of art that creates mystery, excitement but also plays a role in our culture and society in positive ways but also unfortunately sometimes in negative ways.
This Sway will go through the history of Graffiti and some tasks along the way including some Critical Questioning and Thinking and a chance to create your own graffiti style art piece.
The following Sway contains a variety of activities for you to practise identifying and creating symmetrical shapes.
Symmetry is all around us – both at home and in the environment – we just need to keep our eyes open and be aware of it!
Have a look at my Sway and try out some of the activities. Don’t forget to come back and let me know how you got on. 🙂
