Thinking about our Central Idea

Our new unit How we express ourselves is about using the arts to share our ideas and explore our imagination...
We shared what we thought we knew about some of the words in the Central Idea-the arts, ideas and imagination- as our thoughts were scribed into the letter K - what did we think we know about our unit.

But what are the arts?

We know what art is- 'we go to Art with Ms Dana.'

We went back to explore the words we shared when we talked about how we like to express ourselves. We were prompted with another question; How can we share our ideas?
The children took this further and illustrated their preferred form of expression.

Today we added more words of how we can share our ideas.
We then sorted them into groups we thought were similar.

What label would you give these groups?

We are still thinking about the labels we might use to describe each group and in turn work out what the arts are.
