Art and DT for Long Mynd and Hawkstone

Today we would like you watch the video of Any Dream Will Do .


In the story the main focus is Josephs amazing technicoloured dream coat.

For today’s activity we would like you to design your own coat onto a gingerbread man. Using icing and colourful sweets ( this could be skittle, smarties, rainbow drops)  we would like you to design a coat for Joseph. This can be as imaginative and colourful as you want.

  1. Use icing to cover the whole top of the gingerbread man.
  2. Sprinkle the sprinkle topping ( sweets of your choice ) on the icing (letting the extras fall on a plate so you can re-use them). Or you can put a lot of sprinkles in a dish and turn the frosted cookie upside down and put into the sprinkles (press down just a little bit until they stick).
  3. Put on the sweets to make  eyes, mouth, and buttons on his coat.

Please find below a video of how you make your icing . Alternatively you can buy tubed icing that is already mixed .

If you can not access any gingerbread men as an alternative you could decorate a biscuit (rich tea) and design a coat on that instead.

If you do not have access to  gingerbread men or rich tea biscuits, then we have attached a template of a blank coat for you to design your own by drawing and colouring it instead.

Please send in your finished designs via class dojo and we look forward to seeing your work.

History for Long Mynd and Hawkstone


 

Today we would like you to listen to the story of Joseph and his technicoloured dream coat and study the part of the story based in Egypt. Our focus will be to be look at the social hierarchy of the different social groups of Ancient Egypt.

We would like you to read through the power point attached below and work through the worksheet .

Egyptians Social Triangle Presentation

Social hierarchy worksheet

After you have completed the social hierarchy task we would like you to have a go at some Egyptian writing .The ancient Egyptians invented one of the earliest known writing systems. The symbols they used were called hieroglyphs, which comes from a Greek word meaning ‘sacred carving’. This is because the ancient Egyptians believed that hieroglyphs had been invented by the gods. This is not surprising because hieroglyphs were very beautiful.

Today’s task is to work through the powerpoint below and – write your name using the hieroglyphs sheet attached. Once complete can you send over your work via Class dojo.

E.G caring, happy.  Following on from your brainstorm – write a descriptive paragraph about the feelings of one of the characters .Focusing on capital letters, full stops and expanded noun phrases. See writing template below.
