Spring Term 3

Take one Picture

Welcome back and we hope you had a wonderful time over the festive season.

This term, our topic is all called: Take one Picture, focussing on the post-impressionist artist, Paul Cezanne. We will be exploring how he used light, shadow and colour to express his thoughts and emotions as well as how breaking up his paintings into blocks of colour inspired artists such as Matisse and Picasso. In Music, we will be studying different genres of music as well as writing and performing our own compositions.

Rugby will be on Wednesday afternoon and PE with Up and Under is on Thursday; please wear your kit on these days.

Please remember to read at home and practice times tables and spellings.
