Andy Goldsworthy
We enjoyed looking at pictures by Andy Goldsworthy. The children collected their own natural materials and created their own pictures.
This half term we have loved reading lots of different traditional tales. We have enjoyed little red riding hood, Goldilocks and the three bears, Jack and the beanstalk and many more. Here are some photos of some of the fun activities we have completed. We made chairs for baby bear in D&T , made porridge and instructions for Goldilocks and wrote our very own story of Little red riding hood.
We had an excellent time making a pumpkin carriage for Cinderella as part of our 'Once upon a time' topic. We worked together to carve out the windows and door, decorate the wheels and add repeating patterns to decorate.
Our topic has been 'Materials' in science this half term. We have explored the names of different materials and their basic characteristics. We had lots of fun experimenting which materials would be best for different jobs. We tested the best material for an umbrella and the best material for the little pigs house.
This half term we have looked at the artist Andy Goldsworthy and created artwork based on his style of work. We thoroughly enjoyed finding natural materials and creating a variety of patterns.
