Primary 4 Research 1990s

The children have been working extremely hard on researching important events and significant people of the 1990’s.  Then they used their information to create group posters about the World Cup, Princess Diana, the Channel Tunnel, the Internet and Hurricane Andrew.  They have also brought in a variety of toys, games, DVD’s and videos of that era.

 

 

Primary 4 – 1990’s Topic – Expressive Arts

The children really enjoyed researching the ‘Pop Art’ style invented by the famous American artist Andy Warhol.  Then they looked at iconic computer games characters of the 1990’s, such as Mario Brothers and Sonic the Hedgehog.  Finally, they used the unique features of pop art and applied those to their designs, using brightly coloured felt pens and coloured pencils.  The final results were amazing!

A Busy Week in Primary Six

Primary six threw themselves into our cooking challenge this week and made ‘Patatas Bravas’.  We used the potatoes and onions that we grew in our own school gardens!  End result got the thumbs up from our official taster, Mrs Martin.

 

Pupils have been busy at home creating excellent posters displaying their knowledge of various aspects of the 1970s.  Pupils have worked hard and made some fantastic posters.
