This week year 1 continued to develop their understanding of colour. We looked at work by the artist Jasper Johns and tried to recreate his work ‘Numbers’ through use of careful placement of primary colours, with the aim of creating contrast. When overlapping colours the children were able to notice and describe how secondary colours were made.
Year 2 had an exciting time tasting different healthy ingredients of pizzas as part of their DT topic where they have learned about balanced meals and the importance of fruit and vegetables. Some children were very brave and chose to try toppings that they had never tasted before- surprisingly, spinach was a big hit; unsurprisingly, mushrooms were not! They then went on to describe each ingredient using appropriate adjectives.
