This week Year 1 have been learning all about fireworks by writing poetry and creating digital art.
The children started on Tuesday by getting used to drawing on the iPads with the Logitech Crayons. They used Keynote to draw some colourful, bright fireworks using lots of small mark making around a central point.
These fireworks were then all put together into one large image (with the help of our Year 6’s!) to create the lovely animation you can see above.
In their English lessons the children were learning about verbs to describe movement and the -ing and -ed suffixes. They considered which of these words would best describe fireworks and then used them to help with their pattern poetry.
You can see their wonderful verbs and poems by clicking on the pictures below.
