Literacy + Visual Art = Masterpiece!

Room 15 have produced some fantastic art work for you to enjoy!

Exploring: Artistic mediums

We wanted to create a piece of autumn art while
exploring different art mediums.
Here we have used crayon and watercolours to express puddles,
a photograph of ourselves holding an
umbrella under a rainbow created from pastels.  
We have used impasto gel with acrylic paint
to show a watery wet sky.

Measurement - Capacity


The Room 15 team have been working super hard to extend our understanding of capacity and volume.  We have experienced all kind of activities and experiments to gain a greater understanding, here are a couple of photos of our fun!



We are ordering different bowls and cups.  We measured the smallest container, then used that measurement to estimate the capacity of the other containers.  Then we checked using a measuring jug.

Lucy's performance!

Congratulations Lucy on your fabulous performance at assembly on Friday.

Lucy has been learning the guitar with Pip during her own lunchtimes, and we were so impressed by her skills!  Well done...

Smarties Fractions

We have been learning about fractions and finding a fraction of a number of objects by equal sharing in thirds, fifths and eighths... but also how many in a smarties packet and equal sharing, lucky if you got 14 in a packet!
