Len Lye: Dance of Life

On Thursday 10 November we visited the Govett Brewster Art Gallery to look at Len Lye's kinetic sculptures.  We thought about how movement can be part of art and we worked in groups to create our own composition of movement.  In groups of 6 we drew some shapes and words to represent movement onto transparent plastic and then we created a dance which reflected two of the movements we had drawn. Our transparent drawings were projected onto the screen behind us and then we performed our movement composition to our class.  Have fun looking at the videos of our movement compositions.  Videos will hopefully be up soon.  We are having a little trouble loading them on at present - enjoy these photos until we can get the videos loaded :).







BIG thanks too, to our wonderful parent helpers.  We couldn't do these exciting activities without you :).

Spelling - Term 4

For Term 4 we are revising many of our spelling words to make sure that we are super spellers.  If the words you receive in your notebooks are too easy for the week you can go back to some of our previous lists and check that you still remember them.   - Mrs Brown
