Purple Class and Red Class

The week began with an imaginary visit to the rainforest!! Purple class delved into the painting 'Tiger in a Tropical Storm' by Henri Rousseau and imagined the sounds we could hear, the smell and heat and the animals we might encounter. We acted out our journey and showed our feelings when we came across the TIGER arrrrrgh!!

Each child was given their own colour copy of the painting and wrote lots of descriptive words about the painting around the edge to create a boarder. Finally, we thought about other animals we might find in the rainforest and drew and stuck them on to individualise the picture.
