We have just started Week 7 and we continue to be busy with our learning.
The swimming pool has remained open and we are continuing to swim each day. We had a Pool Party on Friday as a playground token reward and it was a lovely sunny morning for our session.
In our reading programme we are reading anything to do with the ocean. We are very interested in sea creatures and how we can help stop plastic from getting into our beautiful waterways.
Our shared novel is Gangsta Granny Strikes Again by David Walliams. Each week there has been a range of activities to choose from, the drawing ones proving to be very popular. Some children were very interested in the Titanic and carried out some research on this.
Our student teacher, Miss Carnegie, has been taking a few lessons. A very popular one each week has been the drama lesson. Room 14 are getting very good at improvisation, thinking on the spot and being confident to act something out.
In art we are creating a self portrait in the style of Romero Britto. We are pretty much ready for the colouring stage next week.
Bill showed me some art by Britto online, I'm excited to see what they come up with. So bright and colorful.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting our blog and leaving us a comment. We have really enjoyed working on our portraits and can't wait to start giving them some colour. Keep watching our blog because we will post some photos of our finished art.
DeleteIt looks like you have been having fun. ;] I have been mostly just sleeping because I've been sick.
ReplyDeleteOh no, that's no good. We hope you are feeling much better soon and can come back to school and Room 14:)

ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting our blog and leaving us a comment. Some people have been using their swimming skills outside of school and visiting the school pool after school too. We have continued swimming but the pool has been quite chilly!
