• Kandinsky inspired art

  Thu 18 Nov 2021 Miss Blackwell and Mrs Higson

  This week in maths we have been investigating circles and triangles. We have learned that circles have one curved side and triangles have three straight sides. As part of this, we looked at some paintings by Kandinsky who was a Russian artist. He used lots of shapes in his pictures. Then we all helped to make a giant picture like Kandinsky’s using pastels. We made one circle each and put them together to go on the wall.

• Diwali

  Thu 11 Nov 2021

  This afternoon we had a special visitor on Zoom called Neetal. She told us all about being a Hindu and how she celebrated Diwali. We have already learned a lot so we could answer lots of her questions. We listened very carefully. We watched a CBeebies programme about Diwali and Neetal told us the BBC filmed it in her house with her family. Then she taught us a special dance to celebrate with lots of clapping. Finally some of us had a red dot on our forehead called a Bindhi to celebrate Diwali.
