Two-day creative task

Mrs Meynell’s Afternoon Makes!

Paper craft rainbow flower

 

  1. You will need coloured paper/wrapping paper/old magazines cut into strips measuring 21cm long x 2.5cm wide.
  2. Draw a circle using a plate/bowl
  3. Fold first colour strip in half lengthways then stick 3 together and stick around the circle shape starting in the middle. (I used Sellotape)
  4. The next colour goes underneath
  5. The next colour goes underneath that and so on until you have a layered flower.

 

You could change the design to a heart, butterfly or a clown with silly hair, why not draw your portrait as the face?

 

Be creative and send in your completed designs to Mr Butterworth and don’t forget to put them on your windows to brighten up your street.

Home Learning for 23.3.20

Good morning! I hope you have all woken up wide eyed and ready to go today! Try to remember all the things we’ve learnt to help you solve the following challenges. If something is getting too hard and you are becoming stressed, leave it and try to come back to it later if you can. I am at the other end of an email so please get in touch if you need me. 

Try to make sure you have organised a quiet working space and that you have a snack mid morning like you do in school and have your dinner at a similar time to when you’re in school. The sooner you get a routine sorted, the easier it will be for you and your family.
