Class 3
As part of the Building and Shelters main lesson, Class 3 students constructed their own homes, drawing inspiration from the diverse types of dwelling they had learnt about - using recycled materials!
Armed with bucket loads of imagination and a commitment to sustainability, the children jumped right in and created blueprints of their plans in class. Their parents then leant them a hand and ingeniously transformed natural and discarded materials into houses filled with character and charm. The attention to detail in their creations was remarkable. Each house boasted the essential attributes, from intricate windows and doors to unique roofing designs and charming little gardens.
We are now expanding our skills even further as we work together with David Stockdale on our building project. The chicken house is being constructed in the orchard and we cannot wait for its completion. The children have worked so well as a team, I am extremely proud of them! We would like to thank everyone for their kind donations of materials.
As children begin the 9 year change, music meets them in a new way. They are ready to "stand on the earth" and feel the major and minor scales. We are currently deep in our Music Notation main lesson. The children are learning through story, imagery and hands on experiences. We even created a giant stave!
