Autumn Flower is the name of the scarecrow created by the children in the Rainbow Room and they have chosen well, considering the ideas they used to make her. As we have been learning about Autumn, they decided to make a scarecrow that looked like Autumn.
There were problems to be solved, such as how to stick the poles together to make a body, how to get the shape for the scarecrow’s clothes and what to use for a head. There was great fun drawing round Mrs. Gray, decorating the dress with handprints and making the face which changed, from the original plan of a ball of bubble wrap covered in material, to an upside down bucket which we liked. It was great to see so many children contributing their ideas and skills to make their scarecrow. We hope that everyone likes Autumn Flower.
