Creating our tie-dye T-shirts - we practised the effects we could make on a prototype and then used these ideas to design our t shirts all ready for the fashion show.
Forest School Week one - we had fun at forest school this week. We practised our den making skills using tarps and sticks, had a go at using a hammer to make hedgehogs, created hotels and used our imaginations.
Computing - practising our touch typing skills using bbc bitesize dance mat typing. We had to think about where our hands are placed on the keyboard and what fingers we use.
Fabulous Finish - Roman feast - we enjoyed tasting some fruit and biscuits that the romans would have had and entertained each other with jokes, songs and acrobatics!
Our DT Project this half term has been on pneumatic systems and inventing a moving toy with a roman theme. We found out how pneumatic systems work but looking and trying out using syringes and tubing. We then designed a toy which has a moving part and used tubes and syringes to make them work. We were very pleased with what we made! Well done Sparrowhawk Class
Intrahouse basketball - we focused on following rules, teamwork and perseverance. The games were great to watch and see everyone get involved. Great job Sparrowhawk Class.
We have had fun creating our roman mosaics. First we thought about how mosaics are made, then used clay to make our own tessarae. After we design our 6 x 6 tile- thinking about using different shades of the same colour. The next step was to paint the tiles and finally put them together to create the 6 x 6 tile.
