Music

This week in music we were learning how to write stick beats in music.  Mrs Lyall sang a tune and we were able to draw the number of sticks in the rhythm and show the length of the different notes.  We then worked in groups to find rhythm sticks to match Mrs Lyall’s tune.  Once we were confident at this, we split into the red and blue group and played different rhythms to different time signatures using drumsticks.

History of Art

This week we wrote stories about ‘The Sunflowers’ by Vincent van Gogh and created ‘The Daffodils’ by P4c.  We started with a pencil drawing, then used water colours to add in the background colours.  We mixed two primary colours to make complementary colours for our sky.  Next week we will add the finishing touches to our daffodils and stems.  We were proud of our artwork!
