In November, we Remember!
We made our very own Poppy display by using finger painting.
Knighton Church in Wales Primary School
Caru Duw, Caru Pawb, Caru Dysgu
We worked with Mr Meredith, looking at a piece of art work by Romola Parish, called ‘Wilderness’
We discussed how the image made us feel and then tried to answer the following questions:-
Where are you standing in relation to the picture? Are you in it, or an observer, watching what is going on?
Which do you relate to- the bird or the sheep? Can you think why you feel more like one, or less like the other?
We wanted to establish which shape base was the strongest for skyscrapers. We decided to build models of skyscrapers using LEGO and K’nex and then use LEGO We Do to create an earthquake simulator. We placed the models on the simulator to test how robust they were. Unfortunately the models were either too heavy for the simulator to move or too tall to stand upright on the simulator! We tried it on the table and carpet in the hope that the amount of friction would help, it didn’t. One of our class members thought to attach a LEGO plate as a base for the models to stand on, this didn’t work either!
If the school is closed for a day (or more) due to inclement weather, please complete some of these activities!
If it is due to snow we would also love to see some photos uploaded to your Hwb accounts to show us what you have been busy at!
