Fun Day Thursday

Good afternoon,

And a lovely afternoon it has been too. Indeed, the whole day has been grand!

Very many thanks to our wonderful parent helps - without you, we could not have gone.

Pop Art

Tuesday's Tuesday

Good evening,

Not much to report really. We math'd...

...wrote...

...and read.


We also completed a wee object lesson that proved that Creativity Requires Time.

Competitively Cooperative Monday

Good evening,

This morning kicked off with a bit of healthy competition...

...and continued with some jolly fine cooperation.

As well as a bit of sorting out for the next piece of R.E. learning.

An Example for Blogging About My Art Inquiry Ideas

Good morning,

This term the Batten Team are doing a weeee (or actually quite a large) Art inquiry, based on our passions.

I really love Star Wars.

There are all sorts of art ideas that I could use related to Star Wars.

• I could draw characters
• I could paint backgrounds
• I could make a building sculpture/landing pad out of boxes and stuff
• I could perform a Star Wars music piece on the guitar

I would like to create a choreographed lightsaber battle with a partner...or perform a heavy metal version of the Asteroid Chase, from Episode V.

The questions I have about this are...

• how do you do it?
• can I rotoscope online?
• what can I use for the sabers?
• what do the colours of the sabers mean?
• what costume shall I wear
• will I tell a story, or just battle?
• where can I see examples

Ryan vs Dorkman!

That will do for now,

Bye bye,

Mr Grant

Video-Response-To-Text Wednesday

Good afternoon,

It's been a fun old day here at school. What, with a bit of reading...


...and responding to text...with the help of Room 6...

...which we will use as a basis for writing on Friday.

And a good time was had by all!

May the fourth be with you!

Welcome Back Monday

Good evening,

Well...back to it then...

...which included viewing some rather freaky art...

Wow!
