We have enjoyed looking and learning about the french artist Henri Matisse. We have copied his style and explored making our own collages and a group collage. 
 

In RE we have been investigating why Christians see Easter as a victory. This week we have looked at some artwork which represents victory in the Easter story and then we made our own pieces of art. We also listened to some Easter hymns and songs and added some of their lyrics to our art. Can you…

This term our dance has been linked to our history topic of the Vikings.  We have practised and performed a battle dance.  Here are some short video clips of our rehearsals.

We really hope you all liked your Mother’s Day cards. We spent lots of time and care making them for such special people.

Happy Mother’s Day to all our lovely mums. Our cards were made using the skills of snipping around a circle and tearing paper to make the petals. We hope you’ve all had a fun day.

Thank you to the parents who came to our, ‘Reading Cafe’. The children loved listening to a range of stories and we even enjoyed some juice and a biscuit! 

This week, we have been learning about friction. We used Newton meters to pull a bag across different surfaces to see which created more friction. More force was needed to move the bag across rough surfaces like the astroturf, concrete and carpet. 

We had an amazing day at Blackpool Zoo today! We enjoyed finding out about what each animal ate and found out if they are carnivores, herbivores or omnivores. We watched the tiger eating his dinner and worked out he was a carnivore. The fact-files around the zoo, also helped us. 
Thank you to…
