This week we have started our art slice where we will be learning the skills of collage. To start with we have learned about a new artist Jessa Dupuis who is known for her collage work. In addition, we did a quick recap about Waltraud Nawratil who we studied for our painting art slice.
Today, we completed our book talk lessons which consisted of us unpicking the text and ensuring we understand the vocabulary we’re reading. We had some good discussions about the vocabulary and used different skills to help us understand the meaning and context of the words.
We have now started our music cases study which we’ve all been excited about. We spent our first lesson looking at musical vocabulary such as beat, pitch, volume and melody.
We then had a go at finding the best in a piece of music which took us a bit of practice but we got there eventually.
To continue our computing lessons, Crew Hamill went on a safari hunt around school! However, we weren’t trying to hunt out animals 🦓🐅🦒 we were searching for technology 💻🖨️📱We went around school and made a list of all the technology we could find and made a note of where things were. It was amazing to see just how much technology there is in Carcroft Primary – computers, laptops, interactive screens and printers just to name a few.
In music so far we have learnt how many clap you do for each animal and to put into a song
They worked together as a crew to help each other to the other end
In today’s experience lesson we tried to see if we could find where penguin was because he was feeling lonely and sad. Luckily using our telescopes we managed to find him rowing in an umbrella!
This week we have been learning about Spring. We have been reading The Hungry Caterpillar 🐛 We have practised sequencing the story in our small groups, and made some lovely butterfly pictures!
In our mindful crew session this week, we looked at how sometimes we can feel lonely. We had a great discussion about what feeling lonely meant and how we can do things which can make us feel less lonely. We then chotted these ideas down on a sheet. It was lovely to see the things that we can do to make us feel happy 😃🥰
