Today’s focus: Expressive Art And Design

Today, the children continued exploring our focus text, 'The Gingerbread Man! We acted out the story, remembering and using the different characters' speech as we retold the events. We also created the setting of the story, 'the wood', using real leaves we had collected and explored mark-making by drawing patterns and pictures onto foil outside. To mark Remembrance Day, we used red playdough to mould our own poppies, adding black pom-poms to create the centres.

Discuss at home: 

How might the different characters in the story move?

What does it feel like?

Can you tell me what you have drawn/painted/created?
