Today as part of our maths lesson we went out to the school playground on a pattern hunt. We found different tree barks, arrangements of plants, games markings, paving stones, brick walls and windows to name a few! Lots of collaboration and creativity!
We have been Emotional Detectives today with our handy magnifying glasses! We were identifying the emotions of the characters in our books but looking at facial expressions and body language.
Today we challenged ourselves to draw the Eiffel Tower as part of our creativity project. We were practicing using line as outline, drawing shapes and bold lines using our rulers. At the end we used Eiffel Tower grey to colour our drawings in and we added in a few clouds to the sky. The end results are fantastic and we are all very proud of our finished art pieces.
We have been discussing how we are all different and unique as part of our school assemblies and school Charter. We are drawing self portraits to express our own appearance and personality traits and they are looking fantastic!
Today we started our writing lesson having a blether about a few unique characters! We were practising using adjectives, similes, metaphors and alliteration to describe appearance and personality traits.
On Friday we all started to create a beach collage inspired from Silver Sand beach in Aberdour. We started by painting the sea using paint, then positioned little scraps of paper carefully on to our paper to look like sand. Next week we will add our own flip flop design and starfish. Everyone worked well together and used creativity and super collaboration.
