Walk in My Shoes!!

Something was afoot in Year 3 yesterday!

Children returned from their half term break to find their classrooms full of shoes of all shapes and sizes, colours and patterns. Continuing with our special theme days on the first day back after half term, the children were asked to use their powers of observation, and their creative thinking skills in lots of different activities involving shoes.

These included thinking of different uses for shoes; sketching shoes from different perspectives; designing their own unique shoes for a given client and telling a story from a shoe's point of view.

They also used the internet to research for some impressive facts about shoes. Did you know that the world's most expensive pair of shoes cost $2,000,000 and were made of 565 platinum diamonds!!

All the children worked extremely hard and as you can see the results were pretty impressive!!
