We got to look at the train, sit in a carriage and the engine room! We sat in the driver’s seat and some us even pulled the train’s whistle – it was very loud! We saw where the coal goes in and talked about how this makes the train move.

They have been working on fast and slow beats, with an enthuses of body moving to each beat. This has help them develop their marching skills, essentially with music soldiers would have marched to during WW2. The class had a favourite tune from WW2 ‘It’s a Long way to Tipperary’, which they enjoyed marching to. The class also attempted to drum along to the tune following the beat and role-playing being soldiers marching into war.

View large version of image View large version of image In Mr Broomfield’s class the focus for art the Autumn term has been vanishing points and junk modelling. The photographs show the pupils with their finished junk models and the 3D image they produced before creating their models. The pupils learnt how to create a vanishing point for a picture, which most of the pupils created scenes with a horizon and vanishing point. They utilised this skill to develop 3D pictures of vehicles they wanted to create out of junk. They were able to work independently on they own project and were able to help their peers develop ideas.
