History and English - Learn and Present
Today we worked with a drama company called Altru to produce a play called The Pool of Life. This documented the local history of Liverpool from the ice age, King John, The Beatles, football and history of important buildings! We loved having fun while learning historical facts and improving our speaking and listening skills. At the end of the day we performed our play to another class.
British Values - Democracy
This week we went to the polls to vote for our new year two school councillors. All of the children who wanted to be considered for the job had to complete an application form saying why they would make a good school councillor and what they would like to do. These application forms were submitted and then shortlisted. Those children on the shortlist presented their ideas to the class before voting. Well done to our two new councillors!
Art - Alma Thomas
We have been studying African American artist Alma Thomas in our art lessons. When we looked at her work we identified hot and cold colours and that she had used paint to create a mosaic effect. We chose the colours that we wanted to use and mixed some of them to make them lighter or darker. We also practised using our paintbrushes to get the shapes that we wanted to use.
We created our own paintings in her style for our Mission display this year.
