Here is my Life cycle of a frog – my Tadpoles are still at the tadpole stage, but they should get legs in the next couple of weeks.

here is a video of my tadpoles doing what tadpoles do best…eat and swim… today I learnt that the time it takes for a tadpole to develop in to froglet is dependant on how much food they have and how cold it is so it can take anything from 12 weeks up to 1 year… I hope it will be 12 weeks!

I found some old wallpaper in my garage and I used the back of it to draw on, but any roll of paper will do – perhaps you could use the back of some Christmas wrapping paper if you have some left over.  I also used charcoal and chalk pastels but you can use felt tipped pens, crayons or coloured pencils if you like.  I chose some classical music to draw to because it doesn’t tend to have any lyrics ( it is better if you choose some music without words that could distract you from the sound of the music).

 

 

 

 

I stuck my piece of wallpaper up on my lounge window with some masking tape.  I got my piece of charcoal ready and switched on my music.  The first piece of music I chose was ‘The Flight of the Bumble-bee’ by Rimsky Korsakov.  It is a very fast piece of music so my lines quickly buzzed around the paper like a bumble-bee.  I added some colour afterwards to make it more interesting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I enjoyed doing this so much that I decided to do another one but to much slower music – this time I chose ‘Aquarium’ from Carnival of The Animals by Saint-Saens.

 

 

 

 

There are quite a few famous artists who have made works of art to music- you could look up:  Wassily Kandinsky – ‘Compositions’ series, Piet Mondrian – ‘Broadway Boogie Woogie’, Andre Masson – ‘Automatic Drawing’.

Give it a go, it’s fun and easy to do. Mrs. Madden. ( I tried to put this post on my page but it didn’t come out very well so I did it again on here.)

Today I learnt about ve  day by watching a film set in the day and reading some books and talking with Mark and Mummy. I can tell you all my notes 

To day its victory in europe day.
London is celebrating.
People are dancing and smiling.
People are throwing ticktape out of their windows.
Happy music is playing while people are walking with their families in the street where no cars are running. There are no cars because there was no petrol during the war.
There is more than one thousand people in the street celebrating.
People are waving at friends.
A lot of people are going in fountains to dance.
People are wearing party hats and roses. 
 There are flags everywhere.     
Seeing everyone so happy, seeing their families for the first time in ages and feeling safe made me have happy tears.

Bye for now, we are going to our front door to clap for the carers now.

On May 7th 1945, Churchill made an announcement that caused 2 days of celebration in London and across Great Britain. He said, ‘Hostilities will end 1 minute after midnight on Tuesday 8th May 1945.’

This is what I wrote in my history lesson today.

Bye from Caspian.

Today I thought I could decorate a phone case. I originally made the little vase thing about 3 weeks ago. Then I found a clear bendy phone case. I was going to do a glitter glue design but I thought I could a duo so I did exactly that. It took me about half an hour. I used a few tissue papers with different patterns on them. I kept layering and layering the tissue paper. Hope you enjoyed my blog bye! By Orla.
