It’s been a very productive week in Blue class, as we’ve made a new friend called Beegu!

Beegu is a little alien who’s gotten lost on earth and needed our help to feel better. We’ve done lots of incredible work with a special focus on colours, emotions and friendship.

On Monday we read Beegu, and came up with lots of ideas about how Beegu felt during the story and why. We thought about the colours of Beegu’s emotions, and then painted beautiful pictures using all the colours we had discussed.

On Tuesday, Blue class had a special trip to Druridge Bay! We walked all the way around the lake, had a picnic and a play in the play area, and then walked down to the sea to play on the beach. Blue class were fantastically good on their trip, so we all had a great time! Well done everyone!

We have made friends for Beegu in our junk modelling sessions, paying attention to the things we like from our friends. Everyone did an amazing job, and Beegu’s friends are as varied as we are! We did some brilliant detailed writing about the friends we made, made friendship bracelets, and even some puppets!

On Thursday we had a really close look at Beegu’s body language and how art can inform emotions. We then made some amazing watercolour artworks, labelled with emotions, to talk about how colours can represent how we feel.

Our class dinner this week was on the theme of Italy, so Blue class made some incredible Pizzas and Pasta Bolognese. We sat together for lunch and everyone tried something new to eat that they had made themselves.

Blue class have had an amazing end to the half term, and we hope you all enjoy your week!

See you all soon!
