Autumn Term Two

In Maths, Emerald Class have been exploring 2D and 3D shapes through the White Rose curriculum. The children have been learning to recognise, name and describe different shapes, focusing on their sides, vertices, faces and edges. They have enjoyed sorting shapes, identifying them in everyday objects and explaining their thinking using mathematical vocabulary. The class have shown great enthusiasm and growing confidence as they develop their understanding of shape and space.

Autumn Term One

Over Autumn 1, we have been working with an artist called Hannah to create our very own collages. We began by learning about the colour wheel and made a bright and bold colour wheel lion. Next, we explored UK woodland animals which we would later turn into our collages. We looked closely at the different textures on each animal and experimented with painting tools to recreate them. Then we carefully drew our chosen animal before adding layers of paper to build up our collage. Finally, we designed and made frames for our finished artwork. We ended the project with a wonderful showcase event, where we proudly shared our artwork with our families!
