Class full of Posers!

This half term we have been extremely fortunate, we have had the pleasure of Miss Sutton coming in every Friday morning to do some Art work with us. The theme of our Art work is Art in Motion. Miss Sutton has taught us how to use various textiles to present our work. Children have used various technologies to capture either themselves or figures in motion. Some children took photographs of or video recorded each other performing various actions. Other children used 3D animation software, Poser, to create short animations and take stills from these. These were then used as stimulus for the art work. Children tried to replicate various stages of the movements on felt. Here are some pictures of the work.

Presenting Prezi!

This week in Literacy we have been studying biographies. Children have been able to use various sources to research a famous person. They then had a go at presenting their information in a multimedia format. Children used Web 2.0 tool Prezi to present their ideas. Here is Khalid and Simon's work on Dennis Bergkamp.
