On Monday 11th November we talked about Remembrance Day and why we buy and wear poppies. The children were interested to know more and so we explored this further.

We watched a clip together and enjoyed talking about the music and the use of colour in the video. We made our own poppies which we were really proud of.

On Thursday we were learning about mixing paints and we painted these lovely poppy pictures. We added white to create lighter shades of green and thought about how we could use brush strokes to add detail to our paintings.
