Class of 2019

We made our passports and boarding passes before boarding the Y1 plane.

We then turned our classroom into an aeroplane, boarded the aeroplane with our passports, had the safety briefing and departed. 
we had a bit of turbulence on the way but we thought we would take a few detours to look at other famous landmarks on the way...

We have started learning about coins and their value. We were looking at the similarities and differences between all the coins. 

We were lucky to be able to have a look in an ambulance today. We found out about some machines and especially how loud the siren was!! We discussed which emergency number to call and when to do it. Thank you NHS for the fantastic job you do! 

Miss Siddle came in and talked us through a church Baptism. We discussed why the vicar puts a sign of the cross on the baby’s head. 

We have been looking at the artist Pier Mondrian and looking at his use of primary colours. We have been recreating digital pictures on the computers. We used Mondrian's primary colours to explore the secondary colours we could make by mixing the primary colours.  

Using inspiration from Orla Kiely, we made our own designs. Firstly, by drawIng the pattern and then using the printing block and paint. 

We have been looking at the designer Orla Kiely. Using her design, we made our own printing block to create our own designs. 

We discussed rhythm and the pulse of the music. We enjoyed using and naming all of the instruments and finding out the different sounds we could make.

We made a collage of a plant naming each of the parts of the flower and describing their jobs. 

We enjoyed planting our sunflower seeds and making sure we knew what the seeds need.
