This term, as part of our DT, we have designed our own theatre masks and have started to make actual models. Using modelling rock and using a mask template we layered the mod-rock and started to create and shape features similar to our design. Although we ended up with mod-rock all over us the children thoroughly enjoyed it and produced some fantastic masks. On to painting and decorating now!
To welcome the children back and hook them into our new topic, Great Gods and Mere Mortals, Year 3 had a Greek immersion day. As soon as the children arrived in the morning, we dressed them up as Ancient Greek citizens. We created leafy wreaths to wear and sang Greek themed songs. In the afternoon, we took the children into the hall and treated them to a culinary experience featuring a range of greek delicacies such as olives, feta cheese and tzatziki.
