Today we were lucky enough to be visited by cook stars. The children all took it in turns to make a portion of dirty fries. They all chopped, peeled and grated their own fresh ingredient and assembled their meal.

Do you want to make a pizza?
We loved making our own pitta pizza today in our expedition lesson. We followed a recipe created by KS1 children at Carcroft in 2023. They were delicious!
Do you want to make a pizza?
Yesterday the children in Crew Robson practiced their chopping, grating and spreading skills to make their very own pitta pizzas. They really impressed me with how they worked together to support each other. It was lovely to see them enjoying their fruits of their labour too! Great work Crew!
Christmas cards
We had so much fun creating our Christmas cards for our grown ups!
Final Christmas Piece
Yesterday, Crew Hamill completed their final piece in their Christmas art! We’re very proud of the results!
Art slice in MI
We have enjoyed learning about the artist Picasso. We have recreated a snowman in the style of Picasso. We created multiple drafts before our final attempt which we we are all super proud of 🙂
Christmas Art
We have studied the artist Claude Monet for our Christmas art. We have created drafts in our sketchbooks and applied the brush techniques on wood cookies. We are very happy with the final product!
Christmas Pointillism
For our Christmas art slice we have been looking again at Georges Seurat and pointillism.
We started by doing the background which we then left to dry.
We then used primary colours for the star, lights, tinsel and baubles.
Christmas Art
Crew Hamill continued their Christmas art today by practicing some art skills required for their final piece whilst also producing their first drafts. We used outlines of heads which had been split into segments to practice our small brush strokes and our accuracy. We weren’t allowed to go over the lines and we had to make sure we used small brush strokes which will be required for our final piece.
Once we had done this, we then drew some circles that mimic the shape of our final piece and produced a step by step draft of the design we will be painting on to our Christmas baubles. This gave us multiple attempts at perfecting our brush strokes and making sure we were happy with the shape and design.
Finishing our DT product
We had so much fun finalising our DT products by painting on our designs. We’ve even added some fact cards to the top to explain in more detail some of the things we’ve learned during our DT case study!
