Our geography focus this week was to locate Asia on a world map and explore<br />
the features and characteristics of China. The children learnt about the Great<br />
Wall of China and the Terracotta Army. We discovered that dragons are an important<br />
part of many celebrations in China. Some of the children made Chinese<br />
dragons.<br />
The children had a go at recreating work by a Japanese contemporary artist<br />
called Takashi Murakami. They worked incredibly hard and produced some<br />
beautiful art work. They explored using different materials to recreate the colourful<br />
animated flowers.<br />
The class had to research Richard Trevithick and they came up with lots of very<br />
interesting facts about him. We then learnt about steam trains and how they<br />
work. One of the children at home had a miniature steam engine which was<br />
amazing to see.<br />
Keep up the fantastic work Class 1. I am incredibly proud of you all.
