Hi I'm Amy Studer and I'm in year 5. I am going to tell you about our History topic which is about the ancient Greeks! In ICT we looked for pictures that illustrated the climate, the weather and the landscape including the buildings and temples of Greece! We printed the pictures off and stuck them on A3 piece of paper! Some People made little booklets and some made a collage. Afterwards we concentrated on Greek pots. We learnt that we could tell a lot about what life would be like then because there are pictures of wars and battles (they normally include rich against poor) and woman sewing or weaving on them. From this we thought about what we would put on a pot to show what our life is like and the things we like to do! We each received a plain pot on a piece of paper (of course) and we were told we could draw anything we liked on it as long as it showed what we like to do. After that we went onto the computers and found a website that we could make pots on. We had a go and made some pots with funny designs on them. Then we discussed the good things about designing them on the computers and the bad things. 'It's bad because on this site if you make a mistake you have to start again from scratch.' was one that came up a lot. Over all most of us agreed that we preferred to hand draw it instead of on the computer!
Note: We showed some of our pots in year 5s' Assembly!
Your sincerly Amy
