Clay mosaics

This spectacular display is made up of all our clay mosaic tiles that we made. Thanks to Mrs Munslow who spent ages getting them all mounted straight.

Clay pots

Very many thanks to Courtney's Mum and Dad who both came in to help the class make clay pots. They are drying out and will be painted with Roman designs next week. Well done to the class for not getting clay everywhere and thank you to the girls who wiped loads of chairs!


More mosaics!

This time mosaics made with shapes that fit into a hexagon. Some children made very intricate patterns.

Roman pots

We are getting ready to try our hand at making Roman pots. We have some very ambitious designs! It will be interesting to see what they turn out like!

We all worked together to make two large mosaics. They look great! Ask your child to invite you in to see them.


More mosaics

We experimented to see what mosaics would look like if triangular shapes were used. We made some great patterns. Many children wanted more paper to take home - I think you can buy packs of different pattern paper in WH Smiths! Would love to see any the children produce.

Golden time

We got the star jar full again and some boys spent a lot of time using their imagination and building space ships.

Anti bullying week

As part of anti-bullying week we designed a game to show people how to behave in the playground.
We all took part in the design and look forward to playing it to see if it works!

Children in need

A lot of children brought pennies to add to our line. It was great to see it go all round the school...we had to be careful where we put our feet!

Firework poems

We wrote some firework poems and typed them on the computer. We chose different types of text to make them look more interesting.






Firework poems again!

And some more poems!
Some of us used a drawing program then found it very difficult to alter the text... but the poems looked so good we thought you'd like to see them complete with errors!!

World jigsaw

Finally, after several discussions about where different countries should go, we completed a map of the world jigsaw puzzle...and no pieces were lost!
