Clay-Art

In Art on Friday the 28th of November we were working with clay.

We had multiple choice of what we could actually make, you could make a sheep pot, a fish, a turamundi pot or an African mask.

I made a sheep pot, first you have to make a sphere with the clay, next you have to make a big hole in the clay so it looks like a pot, the you turn it upside down and you get small pieces of clay, roll them out and stick them on the pot. We never got any farther then that.

I enjoyed making the sheep pots and I look forward to doing it next week. 🙂

Spelling Battleships

On Wednesday the 19th of November,  we did spelling battleships.  We got a map to draw our battleships on.  If you spell a word right you get to take a shot at your opponent but if you spell a word wrong they get to take a shot at you.We drew one small boat and two medium boats and one large boat.  This week our spelling words started with sub.  It was really good fun and it got us thinking well.

Aztecs sacrifices

This week we did and learned about Aztec sacrifices.

We got to watch a video about the sacrifices and why they killed them,what for and when. After we got sheets about temples,sacrifices,after and why they did it,after we had to right it down on a piece of paper and share to our group.

I learned that fat,ugly,stupid,old and people with scars wouldn’t get sacrificed but healthy, good looking, fit, young people would get sacrificed and that they would sacrifice a person every day because they thought if they didn’t the sun wouldn’t come back up and that the god would destroyed the world.

I  thought it was stupid and sad why they sacrificed young healthy people every day.

JRSO – Road Safety Week

JRSO stand for Junior Road Safety Officers.

On Monday we went to Little Tikes. We made an obstacle for them and read them some Ziggy stories. We were teaching them about Road Safety.

We were teaching them about bright colours that you should wear in the dark and dull colours that you can wear in the daytime but not at night.

Today we handed out competition entries and reflectors for everyone in the school to wear!

Me and Chrissie painted microphones that we need in the play, other people painted stuff such as a guitar, a mince pie, brussel sprouts, gravy and christmas pudding as well as giant knives and forks!
