P5d – Scottish Art Outdoors!

Last week, in the outdoor classroom, we were collecting natural materials to create pictures.

We worked in teams of four and we got to choose a picture to create.  We talked about what we had learned in our Scottish History topic and in our groups, we decided what picture to make.

“We decided to make a highland cow because it is one of Scotland’s most famous animals.” Daouia  “We used grass, stones and bark. We used grass for the inside because it looked a bit like hair.” Maya    “I liked doing this because it was fun and we got to pick our own group members.” Cloda 

 

“We wanted to make Nessy the Lochness monster because it is one of Scotland’s most famous creatures. We thought it looked great at the end because we added in a tail and finns.  We also used stones and bark to put a Scottish flag in the middle.” Finn, Joseph, Daniel and Lyle 

“We wanted to make a Scottish flag because it is quite important in history.” Matthew   “We collected bark, grass, stones and sticks and made our flags using these materials.” Brodie  “At the beginning we just used sticks and stones but it didn’t look that good so we decided to get bark to try and make it look better.” Ethan 

Well done P5d.  You worked very hard, in your teams, to create Scottish images.

P5d Get Creative!

Design Technologies:

This afternoon, we have been very busy constructing models using a variety of recyclable materials.  Yesterday, we spent some time researching and planning out what we wanted to construct.  We considered the materials we could use, their properties, the time it would take and how we wanted it to turn out.

Today, we brought cardboard, paper and some boxes to school from home.  All of these materials are recyclable and we enjoyed putting them together.

We had great fun! We created shields, swords, daggers and more.  Have a look at what we made!

 

Well done P5d, you worked really hard on these.  Fantastic results 🙂

Breaking News!

We have been really enjoying getting our hands on newspapers and reading about current events.  First News and Newsround have been keeping us up to date with local and national news.

Christmas prep:

We designed and painted small Christmas tree pots.  These look really fantastic displayed in the corridor in school.

Very creative P5 🙂  They look really cool, Well done.
