Year 3 completed their Stone Age topic with prehistoric art. They used natural ingredients such as berries and spices to create Earth colours. Next, they created a cave wall and used charcoal and paints to produce their own cave painting. Finally, they painted their hands in a style similar to the Stone age period. It was very messy but a lot of fun.

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!
