Year 5 - Vector Drawing!

Who knew you could draw on a computer!

Year 5 have been learning all about vector drawings and how images are created by the use of layering of shapes. They have learnt many ‘tools’ in googledrawing and have been able to create, select, change the colour and size, group, insert as well as rotate, crop, resize and flip images!

It has been great seeing the excitement across the classroom and what the children are able to do!

Year 5 - Quelle heure est il ?

Wed 27 Mar 2024 E. Long

As part of our French learning, Year 5 have been learning to tell the time in 5 minute increments. They all asked the question formally or informally to their peers as well as replied appropriately.

Year 5 - Complementary Colours

Wed 27 Mar 2024 E. Long

As part of our Art this year, Year 5 are looking at what impressionism is as well as post-impressionism. We are studying Van Gogh, Starry Night, and have spent some time looking at some of the techniques used to create this fabulous painting.

One thing we have learnt about is the use of complementary colours which are contrasting to help the painting ‘pop’. We see this in the Starry Night with the moons and stars. Before we attempt our own ‘Starry Night’ paintings though, we had to create our own colour wheel to be able to identify the complementary colours - here are our attempts!
