Today is all about symmetry, remember symmetry is where something is the same on both sides…a little bit like looking in the mirror 🙂 You can either do the art from the video to make your own symmetrical butterfly or you can play one of our games.

Knights and Castles

Did you know….

A knights shield was painted with colours and a design to show who he was, his face and whole body would be covered in armour during fights so this was the only way to recognise which family they were from.

A coat of arms was worn by a knight when jousting to show which family he was from. It was made up of different symbols important to the house.

The colours and animals used in a coat of arms were very important, I will share more next week 🙂
