Welcome Back!

Welcome back to Room 3. I hope everyone had a fantastic holiday with their families. Hopefully you got a chance to get away or do something fun.

This term our topic is CREATIVITY - with an emphasis on performing art. We will be performing short plays in Room 3, and some clever cookies will get the chance to write their own.
We will also be working towards putting together a short performance for parents and family to see at the end of the term.

Exciting!

Today we started our Gymnastics unit. Here's a photo of some of us warming up ...



Children, don't forget to bring your shorts, leotards or leggings and tee-shirt for gymnastics. We'll be doing this every Monday and Tuesday afternoons for the next 4 weeks.

Stay tuned for more photos ...

Ink Prints

Last week, we constructed cardboard templates for our print blocks. Our theme was 'rickety' houses. We took two art sessions to glue strips and pieces of cardboard to create a scene of an old house in the country.
We learnt how to overlap cardboard, and how important it was to leave gaps in between strips of card.

Yesterday, we got stuck into the ink. We carefully rolled the ink rollers over the ink and onto our cardboard templates...

Then when the template was totally covered, we placed a piece of paper over the top. We had to rub, rub, rub all around - into the grooves. And just when we thought we'd rubbed enough - Miss Jeynes said "NO! Rub some more. It'll be worth it!"







But it was all worth it when we peeled back the paper to reveal our materpieces!
