Happy New Year Everyone!

P2/3B have learned a new song to wish everyone a happy new year!  After learning the melody and the lyrics, we learned how to read a basic graphic score which showed us which instruments should be playing at different parts in the song.

We used percussion instruments as part of our song and we each had a turn of playing all four – boomwhackers, tambourines, triangles and claves.

Here they are in action!

In art P2/3 have been learning about shape and combining materials to create these winter robins.  We first looked at shape and how we combine them to create an image of a robin and add a background.

We then learned to control chalks to colour the background and used crayons to colour the robin before adding some glitter.

We all found out that pens do not work very well on top of chalk!!
