Look out! There is a Woolf about!

19th January 2024

During English, we have started to look at a new book, Woolf by Alex Latimer. The main character is an animal which is half sheep and half woof. We drew Woolf then thought of adjectives which we could use to describe him. We then put these adjectives into sentences. We had a howling good time! 

In art, we have been looking at artwork by Jean Metzinger and comparing this to artists we looked at in Reception, Monet and Van Gogh. This week we had a go at creating a piece of artwork inspired by Metzinger, using colouring pencils to carefully colour in each square to create a landscape. We used some realistic colours and some none-realistic colours, just like Metzinger. How fabulous they are! 

In geography, we have been starting our new topic of mountains, rivers and coasts. We looked at coasts, which are near to us, in the first week and his wek we learnt about rivers. We looked at how a river is made and where rivers go. using atlases and Google Earth, we looked at rivwers which are close to us, the River Helm, and river which are in the United Kingdom. 

I hope the ice and cold disappears and you have a good weekend!
