Our new topic- Urban Pioneers

Our next topic after half term is called ‘Urban Pioneers’. As geographers we will be exploring our local town and finding out about other towns and cities in the United Kingdom. We will be finding out about ‘Urban Art’ and creating our own ‘Urban’ style art. Our class text is called ‘Welcome to Silver Street farm’ by Nicola Davies. You can watch a short video of Nicola talking about her books  below:

 

Helping your child prepare for the topic

Take a trip into Oswestry town, make sketches or take photographs of interesting places and buildings to create a scrapbook. You could begin to research urban artists and add any images to your scrap book.
