We collected an interesting leaf and took it to the outdoor classroom where we drew around it as carefully as we could. Afterwards we matched the leaves with their outlines.
The children have thoroughly enjoyed exploring a range of musical instruments with Jim this afternoon. Jim was very impressed with the knowledge the children demonstrated throughout and how well they shared the musical instruments with one another. ARBENNIG PAWB!!
Over the past few weeks, we have enjoyed some sessions with Chris Andrew from Project Touchline learning about the key value of respect and how that is represented in sports in particular rugby. We also created some pieces of Artwork representing what we have learnt throughout the project.
The children have had a great afternoon with the animal man. Lots of them have faced their fears and were very brave. Well done to all of the children.
Being with and touching animals reconnects us with nature! The pupils weren’t so keen on the insects, but we need them! ‘Nature is Jenga…nature is balance!’ After a couple of minutes lots of us changed our opinion of cockroaches. We are not born afraid of spiders, we learn it.
We loved using the musical instruments to add music to the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar. We discussed the different elements of the music needed and created these elements with the percussion instruments!
