Year 3 designed, made and evaluated their own wraps. Here is what they had to say:
“Putting all of the ingredients down the middle of the wrap was fun!”
“Cutting the ingredients into smaller pieces was fun!”
“Tasting the wrap was delicious!”
“Folding the wrap up was tricky, but we persevered and did it!”
In DT this half term Year 2 have completed a smoothie making project. First they taste tested smoothies so that they could decide which fruits they liked best. Then they designed their own recipes and wrote out which ingredients they would need. Finally they made their smoothies, carefully cutting the fruit and adding it to the container before it was blended. Then they got to taste their recipe! The children had a great time and loved drinking their creations.
This week, Year 6 have shown great creativity when producing art work inspired by Patrick Heron who created paintings full of colour, imagination and fascinating shapes. We’re so impressed at how the children captured his unique style in their own work!
In Art this week, we have explored the shapes and patterns we can make using tie dye techniques.
This week, we started our mono printing in Art. We even had a special visit from Mr Cross who shared his own mono printing examples which left us all extremely inspired.
Year 3 had fun making these bowls inspired by Kandinsky. They used paper mache and thought carefully about how their designs could be inspired by him.
Year 6 have produced some absolutely brilliant board games this week as part of their DT project. From thinking carefully about their initial concept and theme, to considering their own game’s effectiveness during the evaluation process, they have demonstrated great creativity and reflection. We definitely think there could be some future product designers amongst them!
Look at our amazing Stone Age houses!
Year 3 have been designing, making and evaluating their own toothpaste boxes. They thought carefully about what went well and what they could do better next time.
This half term Y5 have being studying the works of local artist Dale Devereux-Barker, who lives and works in Suffolk. Using layering techniques and working with water colours and pastels the children were able to create a ‘space’ themed mixed media collage. We are incredibly impressed with the artwork produced, which is on display ready to impress at the next ‘Work Share’.
