Design Technology - Christmas Cards
As part of our Design Technology lessons, we researched, designed, created and evaluated our very own moving Christmas cards. We had a choice of using lolly sticks to move Father Christmas up and down a chimney or to use a split pin to a snowman's head.
Delamere Forest
As part of our Art and Science units, we took a school trip to Delamere Forest. We learnt about the artwork of Andy Goldsworthy and created our own pieces from natural resources. We also built our very own shelters and tested whether they would be comfortable to sleep in at night! We had a great day and we were able to use what we'd learnt about the different seasons to spark conversations about what we could see in the forest.
Lost and Found
Year 1 arrived to school to find a little, lost penguin frozen in ice! There was a message asking them to help him. We decided to investigate the best tools to help set the penguin free so that he could get home to the South Pole. Once we had investigated, we read the book Lost and Found, which was all about a lost penguins journey back home. The children then thought about the best, safest way to get a penguin from the UK to Antarctica. This will inspire our writing over the next few weeks.
Tiger Day
The children in Year 1 had a fantastic time on our Tiger Day. They enjoyed becoming tigers by dressing up and showing off their best tiger, such as roaring, sleeping and pouncing, moves in the hall. The children also all enjoyed watching The Tiger Who Came to Tea short film to prepare them for our upcoming work on the book by Judith Kerr. We look forward to continuing our work during this unit and writing some brilliant pieces inspired by our Tiger Day.
