What a busy week!
This week we learnt how to make stained glass art based on the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh. We then turned them into cards and wrote card inserts for them. We also made mini Christmas trees made from magazines. These were quite easy to make but took a lot of patience to make them.
We have been listening to and singing our Christmas Carols and really enjoy them. Our favourite is the ‘Xmas Factor’.
In maths we did lots of shopping using ‘Argos’ catalogues. We had to buy things for family and friends but we had to find out how much we spent altogether. Then we found some items were faulty and had to return them – again finding out how much money we got back. Both tasks were tricky!
We have also been learning about 3D shapes and how to make them using’nets’. A net is a plan of how to cut and fold the paper into a 3D shape.
Some of us worked hard to get into the Golden Club and we had great fun today. The rest of us got to colour in a secret picture of Rudolf the reindeer – we had to find grid references and then colour the correct boxes. All in all a busy week.
Enjoy your weekend!
