Art
In art, we are preparing to make clay tiles. We have looked at a selection of different clay tiles, discussed what we liked and even had a go at creating different textures before we design them. One of our 'Big Ideas' in art is Creativity and we have been having so much fun being creative with our designs!
PSHE
This term in PSHE we are learning about belonging in our communities. We designed inclusive playgrounds for children with a range of different needs. We discussed how it feels to be included and how we can make a few changes in our world to make sure different groups feel included in our community. We all had such good ideas and spoke so sensibly about the differences others have.
