Hook week( blind tasting)
Today we have been leaning about our taste buds and how they worked then we did some blind tasting to see if we could see what we thought about each piece of food
Easter/Spring Card
After having opportunities to practice or collaging skills it was time to complete the final product to take home to our chosen adult.
Collaging
Last week, we continued practicing our collaging skills by taking some elements of the final product to have a go at. We looked at the shape and appropriate shapes to use to create the object we wanted.
KS1 Art Exhibition
Thank you so much to everyone who came to our celebration of learning after school tonight. It was amazing to see the children sharing their beautiful work with their friends and families. They have worked so hard over the past term and loved our ‘Blue Planet’ expedition. We hope you all have a lovely Easter and we look forward to welcoming you back soon. KS1 Crew x
We are artists!
We have been super busy in Crew Thompson with our Easter art. We first started by looking at our artist “Jessa Dupuis”. We looked at a range of her work and discussed what we praised, noticed and wondered. We then did our first draft in our sketchbooks using our cutting skills and layering skills and creating a backwash.
We then practiced cutting out flowers and leaves as when we peer critiqued each others work, we noticed that this was something we needed more practice on.
Complete Collage
Crew Hamill are extremely proud of their final collage piece! We used blue powder paint to sponge paint a background and then developed our cutting skills further from our drafting session. We critiqued our draft pieces and realised that we needed to focus on the size of the pieces we were cutting and we needed to be more accurate with the shape of the flowers we were cutting. We’re very happy with our final spring designs.
Art Slice Drafting!
Before completing our final art slice product, Crew Hamill developed their collage skills further by creating a draft of our final product. We concentrated on our cutting skills, ensuring we were accurately cutting the shapes we needed to create our vase, the leaves and our flowers. We then used the collage skills from our previous lesson to layer our shapes together to create a vase full of beautiful flowers.
Colourful Collage
Crew Hamill continued their art slice by focusing on the skills needed to be able to complete their own collage. We focused on selecting different sections of colour within our magazines and then cut these coloured sections into small squares and rectangles. We then collaged these together and filled out squares. We cannot wait to use this technique on our final product!
Collage skills
Following on from learning about a new artist, we had an opportunity to practice some collaging using paper from old magazines. We discussed the important of cutting different shapes, overlapping and ensuring we filled in the blank spaces.
