We learned about Charles Rennie Mackintosh this afternoon and we all did our own version of a Mackintosh rose. We spoke about the visual elements of line, shape and colour. We tried leaning harder with our coloured pencil to make a darker colour and lighter to make it light!

We have had a great week this week! Below you can see some of us reading, playing some addition games, retelling the story of The Magic Porridge Pot to our partners and doing our first ever story map!

This week we have learned that angles are made when two straight lines are joined together. We made right angle checkers and used them to find right angles in our classroom.

We made 2025 calendars to take home!

We have all enjoyed settling back into school this week!

Today we have been learning about the word unique.  Unique means different.

We spoke about how each person is unique.  We all talked about how we look different.  We read a book called, “We’re Different, We’re the Same” which said that although we look different, our bodies do the same things.

The book said that a rainbow would be boring if it was only green or blue, what makes a rainbow beautiful is that it has every hue.

Then we made a rainbow of finger prints.  All our finger prints are unique.

This morning we also did some problem solving. Below you can see some of us using some different strategies we discussed to solve a word problem.
