Purple Class Portraits

On Wednesday, Purple Class became Year 1 for the day. Apart from getting to know their new classroom, the children had a go a sketching their own self portrait. They used professional 2B sketching pencils and kept looking in the mirrors to draw themselves just perfectly!

To help out their new teachers, the children wrote a speech bubble and stuck this on their portraits giving a little information about themselves. Miss Rimmer was very impressed with the writing!

Miss Gulliver, who also had a go at sketching her own self portrait, was astonished at the skill and high quality work produced by the 5 year olds! She also noted how the children have developed 'constructive criticism' whilst watching Miss Gulliver draw!!!
