Creating animation films.

This term we are using an app called Animate It and we have been exploring how to make a short animation film.
We used a plastic animal and took many photos to create a short film, working with a partner - one person worked the camera, whilst the other moved the animal.
 We had to make sure we worked together to ensure the animal only moved a tiny bit each time and there were no fingers or hands in the shot.




 It was more difficult than we first thought, but we enjoyed watching our results.

Material Tree

We used many different materials to make a textured tree. We had to name the materials and describe them. We also had to find different ways of attaching the material to our tube.

Guess Who Homework Projects

This week, we celebrated the wonderful "Guess Who?" homework projects that the children in our class had created. The children each told the class the clues they had generated about a chosen famous person and we had to guess who it was! It was great fun and we really enjoyed sharing them. The photos show us being proud peacocks with our homework projects!

Exploring Materials

Year 1 have explored materials. We sorted them into different categories by feeling them and looking at them. Some were shiny/dull, soft/hard, smooth/rough, bendy/stiff or cool/warm. We even found one that was TRANSPARENT!
