We have had a lovely week this week finding out about William Morris. The children had looked at William Morris for their home learning and many children had looked at the patterns and had a go at drawing them.
We took the pattern of 'The Strawberry thief' as the starting point for our week. We talked about what this meant and what the birds were doing and we looked at pictures of strawberries, strawberry plants and their flowers. Through the week we all drew and painted our own birds and we made collage and printed flowers. Some children had a go at making strawberries out of felt and stitched the seeds on. The final display is really special and is on our web site to look at.
We had our Woodlands session during the week and we made dens, but all had a go at making a bird feeder. We watched film of birds feeding off feeders to gain an understanding of how birds feed.
We have been learning about addition in maths and have done a range of activities to further our understanding of this. The addition machine in our maths area proved particularly popular. See the picture on our web site.
We hope you have an enjoyable half term and look forward to seeing which of the possible 33 ideas you did for your home learning.
