Mr. McCambridge

Happy Hallowe'en

Minecraft Education

Today during our iPad time, we explored Minecraft Education. It was great to see new Inside Out PDMU lessons and Space Adventures. The children also practiced building their spellings using the creative mode. We really had to think hard and problem-solve when we were building some letters. The children worked together and taught Mr McCambridge how to fly add blocks in Minecraft. laugh

We are all superheroes!

We are all Superheroes!

Today we explored how we are all unique. We imagined ourselves as superheroes, highlighting things that we are super at and things we would like get even better at this year in school.

Autumn Poetry

We have written Autumn Sense Poems. While we were on our 'Daily Mile', we discussed all the changes that happen during the season of Autumn linking them to our senses. When we returned to class, as a group we wrote all our ideas down and then used our favourite ideas to create our poems. On the chrome books we used Just2Easy to type up our poems. 

Autumn Block Prints

Our finished prints! We used coloured tissue paper and painted backgrounds in some of our prints. Our next step is to create a frame for our artworks.

Autumn trees block prints

Taking our inspiration from the artist Gail Kelly, we created our own 'Autumn Tree' block prints.

"Block Printing" is a method used to print text, images or patterns on textiles and paper. 

The children have created their own imaginative art works using this method.

 

Kente Patterns: Black History Month

As part of Black History Month, we created our own 'Kente Cloth Patterns' using Adobe Express. 

Kente Cloth is the traditional art from Ghana. One fact is that kente means the pattern of colors.

The children used a variety of 2d shapes to create their fantastic patterns.

Chrome books

The children have loved using the chrome books during our ICT lessons. We were creating an artwork using a repeated pattern.

We have been loving our basketball sessions with coach Jim. Today, we were learning how to perform a jump shot.

Practising counting in 5s

Fantastic Mr Fox

Our class novel is 'Fantastic Mr Fox' by Roald Dahl. We created our own posters for the novel using Adobe Express.

The Planets

Our topic for this half-term is Space. We have been researching facts about our favourite Planets. We used Just2Easy to write up and add images to our facts.

Making Planets

Our topic for this term is Space. We have started to learn about the planets in the Solar System. We have started to make our own planets using papier mâché.
