Dear Mead Room families,
It has been a festival of colour this week in the Mead Room.
Sorting colours, identifying colours, experimenting with creating new colours and a collaborative art experience. We also found time for a Dancify lesson with Heidi too!

On Thursday we placed a variety of coloured paints and a huge
sheet of paper out on the big table for the children to explore. Music
was playing in the background, however we turned it up loud as a provocation to
investigate if music influences the collaborative art process. When the music
was subdued the children painted, shared resources and experimented with mixing
colours. Then the didgeridoo, whistles, and drums erupted from the CD
player ……….The children began to paint intensely and a rich exchange of ideas
emerged—
Kian—lots of swirls
Hannah—Spots!
Ned—X marks the spot
William—There’s a snake
Kian—big, giant spots
Ned—a lizard, and not too many snakes—not at my house
William—They’re poison
Hannah—All the colours of the rainbow
Abi—(singing) Red and orange and blue and red
Hannah—(singing) purple and orange and blue
Abi—It’s a rainbow
Hannah—Spots!
