Another exciting week done! This week we have learnt about how the Moon orbits the Earth, what it’s like to go on a pilgrimage, how to be newspaper reporters, visited Wimbledon High School (so many fun experiments) and investigated how our shadows move and change throughout the day.
As part of our learning about Earth and Space we have been researching the artist Peter Thorpe and admiring some of his abstract space art. He is well known for painting rockets and began his rocket paintings in the 1980s as a way to use paint that he would have otherwise thrown away.
So inspired we were by his creativity that we decided to create our own…what a fun (and messy) process this was. Some of our masterpieces are below.
Have a great weekend!
