Feeling the blues

An example we used to help us to design our own willow pattern plates

Yet another busy week in our class.  We learned about the willow pattern story that we see on the design of many dinner plates.

We enjoyed designing our pagodas, bridges and turtle doves and then adding some patterns to make our plates interesting to look at.

We think our plates look good enough to eat our mince and tatties from !

 

 

 

Gong Hei Fat Choy ! Happy New Year !

 

We have been exploring the skeletons of some 3D shapes then using them to help us to work out the number of faces, edges and corners these shapes have.
We had to really be patient when the models kept collapsing and we had to rebuild them. We became quite resilient though.

Working collaboratively

       

 

How many corners?

We are continuing to write in the narrative style and next week we hope to be finished writing our final narrative story. When our stories are completed we will share them with our friends and act them out. When we act a story out it helps us to feel like we are actually there in the story with the characters.

Then we are moving on to exploring procedural writing.

Our  virtual Scottish Afternoon was amazing. We really enjoyed sharing everyone’s experiences of the Scottish topic. Kingsland definitely has talent!

Great Scot!

The Scottie shortbread that Mrs Clyde made us went down a treat and we wish Mrs Clyde a very happy birthday today!

 

Mmmm!

 

Adding text on the iPads

 

Today we explored the Notes App, typed our text, added emoji’s and drew a picture. Phew !
