Fair Isle patterns

This week the class have been learning about Fair Isle knitwear.  The Shetland topic display wall has a few Fair Isle patterned items on it, and we used these as examples of what the patterns can look like!

We learned that we use a repeated pattern when designing a pattern such as Fair Isle.  We used this knowledge to design our own Burra Bears, using both traditional Fair Isle patterns and our own repeated patterns.

Lots of fun!

Rounders

We have been taking advantage of the recent lovely weather and doing PE outside in the multi-court!

We have been learning how to play Rounders this term in PE with Miss Gear.  This has involved a lot of listening to understand the rules, and the game means everyone involved has to play close attention to what is going on.  It’s a very fun game and the class enjoy playing it!
