How Many Colours in a Rainbow
How Many Colours in a Rainbow? Topic Map
We played a weather game to help us think about what we can do in different weather's. This helped us share our ideas and ask questions about our learning this half term.
We learnt a song called "5 Little Raindrops" to help us understand 1 less.
We read a story called "The Little Raindrop" and learnt where rain comes from.
We drew the journey of the little raindrop as a story map.
We did a science experiment to see how we could make rain using shaving foam and drops.of food colouring.
We explored the noise a rain stick made.
We made our own rain sticks and decided what we liked about them and what we could do to make them better.

We explored blow painting to make rain pictures. We talked about what we like to do in the rain.
We chose instruments to represent different types of weather and then used the pictures to compose some weather music.
We followed the pictures to play our pieces.

We listened to the funny story of 'Mrs Mopples Washing Line'
We explored the wind by making ribbon sticks.
We made wind chimes that tinkle when the wind blows.
We read 'After the Storm' and practised our inference skills to talk about how the characters were feeling at different parts of the story.
We worked in a group to create our own weather stories. We thought about what characters we wanted, where the story would take place, what weather would cause the problem and how our story would end.
We read 'Little Nimbo' by Welsh artist Glenys Cour. We learned that Glenys used collage to create the illustrations in her book.
We then made our own weather pictures using collage. We had to choose what weather we wanted to show and where that weather would be.
We sent photos of our art to Glenys Cour and she sent us this lovely message.
We learnt a Welsh weather song called Sut Mae'r Tywydd Heddiw and performed it for our Eisteddfod.
We ended half term by inviting our parents for a topic celebration. We baked daffodil cookies as a treat to share with them. We performed our Welsh weather song, showed our fabulous artwork and made lovespoons and daffodils with our families.
