Art Lesson

In Art p6 have been learning about the French Artist Claude Monet and have used chalks to recreate his impressionist style.

We started by mixing and blending the chalk to achieve different colours and tones. We then layered on top of that with more chalk, trying to add different marks to create the impression of detail.

The class have worked very hard and has resulted in lots of beautiful pictures, well done p6!!

We will now be moving on to do a similar thing, but this time using paint.

Christmas Jumper Day

This term we organised Christmas Jumper Day for our leadership task.

We made posters making pupils aware when Christmas Jumper Day was.

We also organised a swap for anyone wanting to change their old jumper or to get a jumper if they did not have one.

We were so lucky to receive so many jumpers.

Everybody was looking very festive on Christmas Jumper Day!

Eleanor showed us how to build our own games controllers- using the makey makey kits and a selection of conductive materials . The pupils had to firstly design their own games controller from cardboard. There were some great designs! Tin foil and metal spoons were used to conduct electricity.

Conductors and Insulators

Eleanor Hutcheon came into class and helped us investigate conductors and insulators. Some materials let electricity move through them and some don’t. If electricity can move through a material, it is called a conductor. If electricity can’t move through, it is called an insulator. We used our Hot Wire circuit to test materials for conductivity. We predicted whether playdough, string, wire,blu tack and paper were conductors. Then we tested! Our predictions were fairly accurate.We used our communicating, collaborating, curiosity and sense-making meta-skills.

Build your own games controller- using the makey makey kits and a selection of conductive materials + programming a game in scratch.
