JUDO
We have had a lovely time trying out Judo today. First we took off our shoes and our sweatshirts. We took off our watches. Next we put on a judo jacket. Some were blue and some were white. Some were small and some were large. It was fun trying to find one to fit. Then we got a partner and we followed the instructor to learn a few moves. At the beginning we were using bean bags, and we had to try and spin around so our partner couldn’t get the beanbag (Oscar). My favourite one was the arm wrestles (Bailey), the turtle move (Anton). I liked the sandwich move where you were stuck on your partner’s chest (Kayleigh).
ART
We were learning about the work of Kandinsky He was an abstract artist, and we looked at his pictures where he used warm and cold colours. We used paint and tried mixing our own colours. We made our own versions of Kandinsky’s concentric circle picture. We had great fun, but we got very messy.
