In RE, Year 1 have #enjoyed listening to the Creation story. We looked at what happened each day and the children retold the story using their drawings. 
 

Year 1 #enjoyed using drawing pencils to draw their self portraits. We used thin lines to create a line drawing, using mirrors to see the shapes our faces make. 
 

Reception #embraced drawing with some new materials this week, drawing their familes with fine liners and graphite sticks. We looked at the thick and thin lines that we could make. 
 

Year 2 #enjoyed printing this week! We created small prints, experimenting with lines and shapes, ready to create our bigger printed piece. 
 

Year 2 #enjoyed listening to the Christian story of The Good Samaritan. We looked at the importance of the story and how we could be kind and helpful to others, like the story suggests. We then worked in small groups to order and retell the story. 
 

Year 1 #embraced filling their pages with lots of marks in todays session. We looked at which materials gives us thin lines and which gives us thick lines. Lots of experimentation today!
