Rainbows

Yesterday we were learning all about rainbows. We are learning the story of Noah's Ark this week and our new sound of the week is 'r', so it was a good day to learn about rainbows! We looked at pictures of rainbows and talked about the shape and the colours. We learnt that the colours of a rainbow are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet and that they always appear in the same order. We made rainbow pictures using lots of different materials - paint, chalk, crayons, pencils, felt pens and oil pastels. We also used ICT to make rainbow pictures on the iPads, the laptop and on the interactive whiteboard. We had to remember to put the colours in the right order and draw the right shape of the rainbow.
