The children have been having so much fun during our Friendship groups. They can all share and turn take with each other. They love to catch the frog and they enjoy it when we play look who is different.
Our other groups are also so exciting as we can choose a game and play it with our friends. We can also pretend to be the teacher and ask the teacher to follow our instructions.
Lots of fun and lots of learning.
Team Games
We worked well as a team to pass and score within the baskets.
We considered making the most of space and how we can defend our basket from the other team.
We had fun and enjoyed playing this game in the sunshine!
As we are learning about London in Geography and History, we chose to create a Julian Opie style portrait of Queen Elizabeth. We then worked on our colour mixing skills to fill the portrait with simple colours. We explored mark making techniques with a pencil which could be used to add texture and then applied these textured marks to our watercolour portrait to add depth and detail.
So proud of Kojeen. When he first entered the soft play area Kojeen use to be quite hesitant. He has slowly made his way from the middle and now even goes to the back .He ventured over to the stairs yesterday.
So much progress has been made and his confidence is coming in leaps and bounds. Keep it up Kojeen
The boys enjoyed having timeout together after all their hard work climbing.
The children were so excited today to see the Meerkats. They watched them jump around and come over to us to see us all.
The park keeper let us inside to look through the big screen.
The park was full of new exciting equipment and Hunter loved it.
He explored all the park and even counted the numbers painted on the floor. He asked for a push on the swing and did good listening and looking.
Connor had great fun today with our bubble machine. He tried to pop them and enjoyed chasing them around.
All the children danced around and we counted all the ones we popped.
Our machine made us all happy today and we cant wait for it to be back on tomorrow.
After learning all about Shrove Tuesday we measured, sieved, cracked, pored, mixed, cooked, tossed, spread then tasted our delicious pancakes.
Mmmmmmm yum yum!!!!!!!!
As we near the end of our photography unit, we really enjoyed further extending our skills by using Pixlr x to add effects and change the appearance of the image.
We were able to talk about which effects we found the most affective and enjoyed playing around with the images to get the desired effect to match our creative ideas.
As Artists this week, we were trying to recreate Julian Opie’s simplicity and line drawing techniques within a sculpture.
We looked at his self portrait and discussed the lines and shapes that we needed to represent this image in clay. We manipulated the clay with our fingers and used the tools to craft and add details.
We loved wearing the aprons and getting stuck in with this messy material. What do you think to our masterpieces?
