Primary 2 have been working hard with Mrs McConville learning about shapes. This week they have been successful learners by looking at 3 different pieces of artwork by Wassily Kandinsky, who is thought to be the first abstract artist using only colours and shapes in his work. They looked at his painting ‘squares with concencentric circles’ and used this as inspiration for their own artwork. They created christmas trees with concentric baubles and they look fantastic.
In numeracy we have been practising our addition and have been using our rekenreks to help us count. We have worked together as a whole class using a digital rekenrek, and have also worked in pairs to use them at our tables to help us complete our maths workbooks.
