Embedded Files
Our class has been learning about St. Brigid and her importance in Irish history and faith. We heard the story about St. Brigid and the dying chieftain, and how she used a cross made from rushes to explain God’s love. This helped us understand why St. Brigid’s cross is such a special symbol.
We made our own St. Brigid’s crosses, including some in the Connacht style as well as the more traditional crosses, using real rushes. We also coloured pictures of St. Brigid and learned more about her life. To finish our work, the whole school took part in a special blessing of the crosses, which made the experience even more meaningful for everyone.
Claymations
Claymations
This term we have started an exciting claymation project! First, in Literacy, we created comic strips to plan our storylines. We are putting a modern twist on a classic fairy tale, which helped us think creatively about characters, settings and plots.
Next, we completed a claymation plan where we designed our characters and sets. Using the construction skills we learned earlier in the year, we began building our sets and props. Soon we will make our characters using modelling wire and plasticine.
We are really looking forward to shooting our animation frames using the Chromebooks and developing our technology skills as we put our claymation movies together!
