Branar Arts Flag First task

Acorn Digital Arts Flag

Branar’s Acorn Digital Arts Flag is a whole school initiative designed to promote and reward arts engagement in schools. Branar is proud to be partnering with Acorn Life Group to make this happen each year.

Our class has been working hard to gain a flag for the school. In October  we focused on  ‘looking at the Environment with Catherine’. We did the warm up activities and then the activities during the week and completed the activities. We continued to do the role play during drama time throughout the month.

Activity 1: the children stepped forward to statements to show their awareness of the environment. Many of the children had the same opinion.

Activity 2: Pupils made freeze frames relating to the pictures and statements. They enjoyed being tapped on the shoulder to tell their thoughts and feelings
