We All Wore Red

We all wore red to show racism the red card!

It was also Reggie’s last day at Holbeach School (middle centre, wearing an Angry Bird’s sweatshirt.) We made him a ‘Good-bye!’ card and wished him all the best for his next chapter at his new school.

3L – We made a Clay Tile of a Victorian House

We put 2 sticks either side of our clay and rolled it forwards with a rolling pin, until it was the same thickness as the sticks.

We then cut it into a rectangular shape and used the scratch and slip method to attach the roof.

Next, we added the features of the house.

Finally, we added the detail of the brickwork and the roof tiles. We used clay tools to create the different textures.

Our tiles are now ready to be fired in a kiln.

Red Class showed racism the red card

Today we showed that we will stand up to racism. We wore red clothes, or ribbons, or shoes, or hats to show our support in showingthe red card. We think we look great in red clothes-Red Class.

We revisited our Black History Month inspiring heroes. Look back at the blog and see what you remember.

Next we are looking forward to delicious cakes at the end of the day.

Have a lovely half-term from Red Class.

1s Computing

This week we have been continuing to practice our skills using the track pad but have also been learning how to use the keyboard to type.

This month, we have been inspired by various significant black people throughout history. We looked into the lives of scientists, inventors, athletes, explorers, musicians, doctors/nurses, authors, illustrators and many more. Take a look at some of our work!
