Class 4’s Animal Projects exhibited in the classroom and online

As part of Class 4’s four-week ‘The Human Being and the Animals Main Lesson each pupil choose an animal to investigate in detail, making a 3D model of an animal of their choosing, accompanied by a well researched report combining hand-written and artistic pages. This week each pupil will deliver a talk to their class of peers. It is important the projects include oral, artistic and written elements.

 

The animal projects use a whole array of materials from clay, felt, paper, wool, plasterseen; applying many of the skills they have built up over the previous years, including modelling,  drawing, painting, literacy, reading, knitting and cursive hand-writing

 

Children from various other classes are invited to see the exhibition of Animal Projects.  This year Class 3 and 5 have been invited. The 9- and 10-year-old pupils usually have their desks in a circle with their projects on top to enable the visitors to walk around and ask questions.
