DT 11.7.25
The children designed and made vehicles using Sticklebricks. They had to try and build a car that would travel straight down the ramp and then we timed the cars to see which was the fastest. We talked about how many wheels would work best, what shape the vehicle might be and whether a heavier car would be faster or slower.
13.5.25
In DT today we read the story Handa's Surprise and talked about our favourite fruits. The children have then made their own fruit kebabs by peeling, coring and chopping the fruit. They then enjoyed the fruit kebab as an extra snack!
28.4.25
In Art we learnt about the artist Vincent Van Gogh. The children then practised different sketching techniques which they will put into practise later in the term when we draw a picture of flowers like Van Gogh.

30.01.25 Today, the children put their assembling skills to the test making a Superhero wand!

In DT, the children have been practising their assembling skills. They have used tape, glue, split pins, treasury tags and staples to attach things to their assembling board. They also used scissors to make patterns and fringing.
16.1.25
The children have explored clay in art today and made Morph or a snowman!
8.1.25
In Music today we sang some acton songs. We talked about why sometimes we put actions to songs to make this easier for children who make finding communication difficult or who are deaf. We learnt some Makaton and put these actions to 'Row, row, row your boat.'

7.11.24 The children made amazing poppies for Remembrance Day. They used lots of red, green and black materials to make their poppies.

Today we learnt about why we celebrate bonfire night with bonfires and fireworks. We made our own bonfire pictures using paints scrubbing brushes and toothbrushes, and chalks. They looked fantastic!
21.10.24 Nature sounds
In our music session today we tried to make our voice sound like sounds we can hear outdoors. We went out onto the field, closed our eyes and listened carefully to the sounds that we could hear. Some of the sounds we heard were an alarm, the gate creaking in the the wind, leaves rustling, cars and birds. We then tried to make these sounds with our voices before discussing whether the sounds were natural sounds or man made.
w/c 7.10.24 The children enjoyed making their own Funnybones skeletons using art straws, cotton buds and strips of paper!
In art, the children used mirrors to draw self-portraits.
