Y5/6 - Emerald

E-Twinning Art.

 

Over the past few months, the year 5 children have been working children from a school in Dublin to learn:

 

- Where they come from?

- What is life like in their city/country?

- How is life different in Dublin?

 

As part of the work, children have been communicating via the children's social media app 'SeeSaw' and have also completed artwork in matched pairs that have been sent between both schools - take a look on the following link:

Thought provoking animations

 

As part of our recent writing assessment we completed work based on two particularly interesting videos:

 

- 'The Silent Child' (recent Oscar winner)

- 'Mega City'
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAL48oz7mPA)

 

What are your thoughts about the videos?

How do they make you feel?

What do they make you want to do?

What value do they encourage?

Bradley Wiggins? Laura Trott?  No, it’s the Y6 children from Emerald Class taking part in Bikeability! They had a brilliant time with the team from Outspoken Training who worked with them over the four days. They began on the school playground and then progressed onto the roads of Scothern and Sudbrooke where they learned how to safely perform u-turns as well as a number of manoeuvres in and out of junctions. The behaviour of the children over the course of the 4 days was outstanding and the instructors were very complimentary when their time at the school came to a close. Having worked so hard over the sessions, it would be great to see as many children as possible cycling to school - it will give the children a great opportunity to practise the skills that they have developed.

 

Well done to all!!
