In Arts week we are learning about the 'New Seven Natural Wonders of the World.'
The Harbour at Rio De Janeiro in Brazil is one of these.


We are going to explore some of the famous sights of Rio De Janeiro and create landscape paintings, looking carefully at how we can achieve perspective in our work.



In our literacy we will be learning about persuasive writing. We will look at the tourist sights and sounds of Rio De Janeiro and create a travel poster encouraging people to visit 'The Marvellous City!'



In Music we will have fun learning to play Samba rhythms.
