Some of the fabulous learning experiences our children have participated in this past half term!
DT Moving pictures: Humpty Dumpty
Date: 2nd Nov 2021 @ 9:53am
In Autumn term 1, Y1 learned how to make two different mechanisms - levers and sliders. They applied this learning to designing and making their own moving picture book using the beginning, middle and end of the Humpty Dumpty nursery rhyme.
The children were very skilled in their marking and cutting skills to make the slits for their mechanisms and could talk about why they had used each one.
To test out their design criteria, Y1 shared their books with some of the children in Early Years - they really enjoyed them!

Illusion Art
Inspired by the ‘lenticular prints’ of Luz Perez Ojeda, the children in year 4 carefully cut two images into strips and by alternating them side by side, in sequential order, and then folding, they have created an optical illusion piece of art!!
