ArtChildren are learning how to use a range of techniques to create different tones, textures and shade. They are developing skills in: 

  • Using sketchbooks to collect and record visual information

  • Know how to work using a single focal point and horizon in perspective drawings.

  • Show an awareness of composition, scale and proportion.

  • Taking inspiration from artists such as J.M.W Turner, Hokusai and G. Seurat

 

       

 

Design Technology: Mechanical systems: Gears, Pulleys and Electrical Circuits

Children will be designing, making and evaluating a motorised system a recovery team could use to move heavy rubble following a natural disaster.

 

 

Science:  Forces- Children are learning about the forces of gravity and friction and investigate the friction of different surfaces. They are studying air resistance, investigating paper spinners falling and looking at floating and sinking. They are learning about simple forces, which includes the study of pulleys, gears and other simple machines. This gives them the chance to use their knowledge of machines to aid them in building their motorised system for DT!
