Last week Class One continued to study Paul Klee's work. This time we had a template to give us a helping hand but we had to try really hard to stay in the lines. We noticed that his painting had much lighter colours so we figured out we needed to add white. #art #ks1 #acombfirst
Children in outdoor explorers after school club enjoyed creating these beautiful poppies on our school field. #outdoorlearning #nature #RemembranceDay2021
Class One have been super busy learning about remembrance day this week. We made collaged poppies using little pieces of cut up orange, pink and red paper. We decided to string them up so we could hang them on the gate for everyone to see. I think they look fab, well done!
A huge thank you to Dan @EdWorldNE for our new set of rugby balls and tag belts! 馃弶
Class One have some more art work they would like to share. We continued looking at Paul Klee's painting Castle and Sun but this time we decided to create it using sponges that had been cut up into different shapes! Super job 馃帹 #PaulKlee #Year1and2 #Art
As part of Great Big Green Week, Reception decided to make bird feeders to help the wildlife. We smothered a tube in peanut butter and then rolled it in bird feed to hang up on some of our trees. We hope the birds will be very happy 馃惁
We read the Color Monster by @Anna_Llenas_ to help us identify and understand our feelings. We thought of things we could do to help us when we experience certain feelings and shared our ideas on this fantastic display. 馃ぉ馃憦馃
