English

This week we have enjoyed the story Katie’s Picture Show by James Mayhew.

In the story, Katie visits an art gallery. The signs on the artwork say ‘DO NOT TOUCH!’ but Katie does and she ends up falling inside one of the paintings. We looked at the painting ‘Winter’ by Zuzana Chalupova. We imagined falling into the painting. We thought about where we might land, what the problem might be and how we would get out of the painting. We used these ideas to plan and write a story.

Reginald Laurent

The children have also been creating artwork in the style of Reginald Laurent. He often uses detailed, colourful shapes arranged on a black background. The children carefully cut out shapes and we created a whole-class piece of art.

Vincent Van Gogh

A lot of children found out about Vincent Van Gogh for their homework. This week, we looked in detail at his painting ‘Sunflowers’. We enjoyed painting our own sunflowers.

Year 1 Art Gallery

We have been very busy creating lots of pieces of artwork this half term. The children are looking forward to showcasing all of their work at our Year 1 Art Gallery. All of our pieces will be on display on Thursday 12th February in the infant hall from 3.20pm. Please collect your child as normal and then walk around to the reception entrance, near Mrs Walton’s desk. The art gallery will stay open until 4.30pm, so the children at craft club can come along too. We are looking forward to seeing you all there!

A reminder of our policy on photographs during shows (from our Data Protection Policy):

Parents and carers will not be allowed to take photos at school-run events such as performances and assemblies. The school will take photos if appropriate and publish those that it has permission for. 

These rules are for legitimate safeguarding reasons and concerns (and issues around consent).

Computing

We had lots of fun in our computing lessons. We continued our work on algorithms and the children followed two sets of algorithms to draw a crazy creature. They found that the first set of instructions was not specific enough and all their creatures looked different.

The second algorithm gave more detailed instructions, which meant that the children’s creatures looked very similar.

PSHE

This week, we looked at responsibility. Children talked about responsibilities they had at home and school, like putting their toys away and hanging their coats up. We discussed how different things are different people’s responsibility. We talked about different tasks and the children voted with their feet.
