We are Animators!
In Computing, we created animations where we sequenced the key life events of Florence Nightingale in chronological order. We used different tools to draw and type in text on Purple Mash (2Animate) about Florence Nightingale.
Paul Klee
Willow class created paintings of Florence Nightingale, inspired by the famous artist Paul Klee. We used hot and cold colours and explored the use of different shapes.
Forest School fun!
We had lots of fun at Forest School exploring different animal groups and their habitats. We then had a go at leaf printing, observing and collecting bugs & insects and making bird feeders.
WOW day - Florence Nightingale
We took part in a range of activities to kick start our topic; Florence Nightingale. We had a hot seating activity, where we interviewed Florence Nightingale, asking her lots of questions about her life. We did some dressing up, role play, drawing and got creative making lamps.
Sports Day!
We had lots of part taking part in different activities.
Big Draw
Drawing to represent ways to protect our environment. We used chalk in the playground!
Alma Thomas
We used a sponge dabbing technique to create abstract prints inspired by the work of Alma Thomas.
Picnic
We made wraps for our picnic! We chose from ingredients such as falafel, hummus, tuna, cheese and salad to create our very own delicious wraps.
Fruit Parties
We learned about what parts of the world different fruits grow in. We then made colourful fruit head bands for our fruit parties.
London Landmarks
In Literacy, we read the story Katie in London and used our bodies to retell the story. We used our bodies to make famous landmarks visited by Katie. We love learning through drama!
London Walk
We went on a trip to visit the famous landmarks of London. We got to see the Shard, Monument, City Hall, Tower of London and the Gherkin. We also crossed Tower Bridge and saw the River Thames.
Forest School
For our Forest School session, we talked all about plants. We planted our own runner beans in pots. We were able to compare the growth of runner beans in plants pots, compared to runner beans in plastic bottles.
Runner Beans
We investigated how runner beans grow. We took steps to grow our own runner beans in plastic bottles. We then wrote instructions on how to grow a runner bean plant.
Challah Bread
In RE we talked about Shabbat and what is included on a Shabbat table. For our Literacy lesson we follow instructions on how to bake challah bread. How delicious does it look?
Star of David
As an introduction to our RE topic of Judaism, Willow class made Star of Davids to recognise and portray the importance of this symbol of Jewish identity and Judaism.
Kenyan Landscapes
We have been reading and adapting the story; Lila and the Secret of Rain in our Literacy lessons. We have described Kenyan villages, where the story is set. Following on from our Literacy lessons, we created a collage of a Kenyan landscape in our Art lesson. We used a gradient of different colours to represent the land, mountains, the sun and the sky.
