Henna Art

We painted our background with watercolours, then we got a piece of paper and traced around our hand, then we drew Henna patterns on it.  Henna patterns are often painted on ladies hands for special celebrations in the Muslim faith.  Isla

Islamic Art

We created symmetrical Islamic patterns using a template and two lines of symmetry.  Islamic patterns are found in in many Islamic buildings in decorative floor and wall displays.  The shapes in the patterns all have different meanings.  The star symbolises the spread of the Muslim faith.

Easter

Today we done an Easter egg hunt during our mental maths and after lunch.  In maths the eggs contained mental maths questions and after lunch, they contained jigsaw puzzles.  We worked as teams to find the eggs, then complete the jigsaw.

After lunch it was good fun to work as a team to find the eggs.  My team had to find six green eggs and I managed to find one.  Our team was first to finish.  Ava
