Hi,

We’re Esme and Blair! Earlier this week Miss Kennedy asked us to write a blog post.  Miss Kennedy said it will help us to plan this term’s learning. So it’s time to start this blog post!

In room 14 we have been doing a lot of things linked to autumn and made a spider diagram about autumn!

Nature Art Work

We learned about a British artist called, Andy Goldsworthy. He uses nature to create pieces of artwork and sculptures. We decided to go on a nature walk and collect some of the things he uses. We collected twigs, leaves, stones and grass. We tried to vary the colours and sizes of the things we collected. Some people created designs and then made a tree or a person/face. Some even created, ’emotion’ faces. We absolutely loved the results and even got a comment from Mrs Meechan, our headteacher. We have added a photo of the display in the corridor outside our classroom.

Here are a few comments about the art work…

“I really enjoyed the nature walk. It was so fun.”

“I liked making a tree using the things I found.”

“I’m so happy with how it turned out.”

“I made an angry face by pointing the twigs downwards”
