P4’s bird’s eye view snowmen

In the run up to Christmas we have been doing lots of Christmas themed rt activities.  One of the activities was using shapes and texture to create birds-eye view snowmen.  We used concentric circles and smudged pastel to make it look like we were looking at the snowmen from above.  The end result was really effective!

P4 Ancient Greek Olympics – posters

Here are some photos of a few of our completed posters advertising the Greek Olympics.   We successfully managed to include a lot of the information we researched about the Ancient Olympics on to our posters.  One of our favourite facts was that married woman are not allowed to attend!

P4’s highlight of the week…

P4 voted their favourite part of this week as researching The Ancient Greek Olympics, as part of their ‘Ancient Greece’ topic.  They found out when, where and why the games first began in Greece and learned about some of the rules – for example, no women were allowed to attend!

They were then set the challenge of using their newly learned  information to design a poster advertising the Greek Olympics – photos are to follow once they are completed!
