Class of 2022

We are learning about graffiti art this half-term and started by making our own names in a graffiti style. We used shading to create a 3D effect. We also chose bright colours that pop out of the page. We are really proud of our pictures and we hope you like them too!

It’s that time of year when Rock Kidz come into school! Once we had stopped talking about goats (ask your child!) we learnt about how amazing we all are. We watched a song all about not giving up whatever happens to us. “One life, I’m gonna live it!”. We also sang “Kindness, Live it Out!” You can…

Today, we continued our work on Yayoi Kusama and looked at different techniques for creating dots. We used paint and different tools, pastels, felt tips and collage. 
 

What an eventful World Book Day! We had to take part in Miss Helen’s dance lesson in our costumes, we had to stop mid maths test to do some reading when Mrs Walsh rang her bell, we did a book cover quiz with Year 5 (which we had to stop midway through for more reading!) and Milo’s mum and James’…

We have Miss Helen this half term to help us with our dancing. We are dancing like animals in different habitats.

This week, we have been using rulers to measure. We have centimetre rulers and metre rulers. Here we are finding objects taller/longer or shorter than a metre. We have also measured the school hall and found out that it’s 15m long!
