April Art in Room 5


We are talking a lot about bugs and mini beasts. We have made a wormery. Rory told us that in France people eat snails. I wonder would we think they are delicious? For art today we made racing snails. We made them out of paper and material. They are having a race across the wall of our classroom now. They look great.


Inspired by our 5 healthy caterpillars, we have made wonderful caterpillar paintings. We can't wait to watch the caterpillars turn into butterflies.

We have made lovely bug pictures by painting a pond, a tree and some healthy looking grass. Then we coloured lots of different types of bugs, cut them out and gave them new homes in our paintings.
