Inspired by the works of Van Gogh, groups of my Class 4 pupils have created their versions of Van Gogh's masterpieces by using recyclable materials, mostly plastic bottle caps.
Each group provided and received feedback from the others.
We even organised an exhibition in the hall.
After learning a catchy song about the months of a year, talking about our favourite seasons and the reasons why we like them, I asked my Class 3 pupils to write a poem about the season they were born in. I shared a model with them, too.
Then, I asked them to make a line according to their birthdays. What followed was teamwork on posters. Divided into teams according to the seasons they were born in, my Class 3 pupils created their mini posters sharing their favourite activities, the food they eat and clothes they wear in that particular season, and, of course, their birthdays:
My Class 3 pupils already know about different animal families and their features, but now they can talk about them in English as well.
In their teams, they've presented mammals, birds, reptiles and insects.
My Class 3 pupils enjoy working on projects in teams, so it's no wonder they've accepted my suggestion to team up and present different habitats using colourful collages. I've let them choose their own teams which, in most cases, turned out right.
