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!
Year 3 have been learning about different types of rocks. Granular, crystallised and fossilised. We looked at the formation of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. The children were given an assortment of rocks and were asked to group the rocks according to their appearance. We then sorted the rocks correctly and the children were excited to see if their predictions were correct.
