Art Week

The final week before half-term, we immersed ourselves in Autumn and art.  We used Autumn leaves, nuts, pine cones, pine needles, acorns, conkers and much more to create an array of art.  We learnt about British Artist Andy Goldsworthy and looked at art pieces he had created in nature using natural materials. We created a clay minibeast using sticks, twigs, leaves and more to add detail.  We looked closely at all the wonderful nature and did some excellent sketches as well as creating some stunning Sun catchers. We hope you are impressed with their artistic talents!

 

You Choose

After reading the book 'You Choose' by Nick Sharratt and Pippa Goodhart we enjoyed looking at all the amazing illustrations and talking about the different choices we would make. We then drew our own pictures and wrote what we would choose.

 

Art

We have enjoyed exploring oil and chalk pastels, blending these to create different hues.  We applied this skill to drawing some fruit and vegetables.

 

Maths
In maths, we have been looking at place value and how numbers are represented by tens and ones.  We used Dienes to represent these.
