For our final product this term, we are going to create a sculpture out of recycled materials. In class 5, we are going to use materials such as clothes, zips, buttons etc. If you have any of these items spare that would normally be going in the bin, please feel free to bring them in to help us create a beautiful piece of art. Our aim is to be artivists, raising awareness of the damages and environmental chaos caused by pollution and humans own impact!
ITEMS WANTED:
Zips (for sea anemones and jellyfish tentacles), denim (for fish and sea), buttons (for the sea bed), wool (for puffer fish and to sew materials together), hessian bags (for the sea bed). If anyone has an old transparent rain coat or something of similar material that would also be useful to create a jellyfish!
Thanks, Miss Good and class 5!
Come along on Thursday 31st March to help us build a bug hotel sculpture using recycled materials. If you have any materials that you think might be suitable, please feel free to them bring along with you! From 9:15-11am.
Here are some inspirational pictures that we are hoping to recreate with you and your families!
See you then, KS1 team 🙂

Key stage 1 took part in a webinar last week as part of the Doncaster stories event. We heard the story of Nen and the Lonely Fisherman read by its author Ian Eagleton, and then took part in an interactive art session with the book’s illustrator, James Mayhew. Below are some of the wonderful drawings the children produced.
After watching an inspiring video about a young girl who was finding out just how awful the effects of plastic pollution can be on our sea creatures, created by Greenpeace, the children took it in turns to be put in the HOT SEAT, taking on the roles of the character of the girl, as well as the turtle who’s life we followed through the story and the impact the pollution had on him and his habitat.
The children asked each other some wonderful questions, about why people litter, how the turtle felt, and discussed how we can help! We thought that it might be a good idea to take your rubbish home with you to dispose and recycle where possible, use recycled or re-usable items such as bottles / containers and always be sure to use the bins when possible!
Well done to class 5 today for becoming teachers and leading their own learning. In small groups we all looked at different countries, researched them and found out about the flags, the weather, the animals and even found some fun facts too!
We worked collaboratively this morning and this afternoon the children are going to share their learning, to teach each other about what they found out…
