A taste of our learning
Fabulous form – Art
Our art unit this term is focussed on the artwork of Edward Hopper and the element of art: form. Last week, we researched Edward Hopper and what impressionism is and this week we have begun to explore how we can use form in our drawings to create 3D shapes on the page. We carefully drew our outlines, learning to use crosses and ellipses to structure our shapes and then careful shading to add depth and create that final illusion of form on the page.
Questions to ask at home:
Who was Edward Hopper?
What is impressionism?
How can I draw a 3D shape successfully?
Brilliant BikeAbility and football fun – P.E
It has been a very active week this week! Year 6 have been developing their cycling skills through Bikeability, building their confidence and learning how to stay safe on the roads. Congratulations to everyone who took part in achieving your Level 2 award. In PE, they have also been revisiting and refining their football skills, practising passing and dribbling.
How to be a successful learner and Rights Respecting displays
Our first few days have been incredibly busy deciding our class charters that we want to uphold and follow to ensure a successful year in Year 6! We created a class of foxes learning about our characteristics to be a successful learner. We chose: determined, positive, creative, respectful, thoughtful, collaborative and an active learner. Alongside this, we created our Rights Respecting charter. We chose key articles, like Article 31, the right to rest and play, and Article 29 that education should enable all of our talents, abilities and interests! Take a look below at how we are presenting these in our classroom.
