Primary 4/5 were feeling well rested and ready to go after our October holiday.

This week we began our ‘Artist of The Week’ block, where we will focus on a different artist each week.

This week we studied the style of Russian artist Kandinsky. 

We were able to describe his style of art, known as ‘abstract’ art and have a go at recreating one of his famous works.

We also continued our study of Kandinsky later in the week. We used ICT to research more about him and then sorted our findings into relevant sub-headings.

This is a useful skill that we will continue to develop as we begin to look at different types of report writing this term! 🙂

Recycled Rockets 🚀 

This week we had the chance to use a range of ‘junk’ materials to complete our model rocket challenge. We have been learning about space travel and took the opportunity to design and construct our own model rockets.

First, we sourced materials and created our plan. When it came to constructing our designs, many of us had to adapt and change our plans when we came across problems.

We can’t quite believe it is the end of term 1. What a fabulous, busy and productive term it has been.    ✅😎
