Ian’s Farm 🐑

Today, we had a super exciting visit from Ian the farmer! Ian brought lots of his animals with him, and we got to stroke them, ask questions about them, and we even fed them some carrots! We loved seeing all of the different animals as part of our hook day ready for Case Study 3 – What happens to creatures as they grow? We learnt all about the names of the animals, what their babies are called, and how Ian looks after them on the farm.

Today we have started our first draft of our artwork for our final product. To say these are our first drafts we are very proud of our beautiful work already! We had three groups: some children decided to draw a mic with the help of Miss Taylor (to represent MLKs speech) which was for children less confident with art, the next group worked step by step with me to draw George Floyd and the last group lead their own learning by pushing for 4 and challenged themselves to follow an online tutorial drawing Martin Luther King.

Art continues in MI

MI have shown such resilience and determination today during our art sessions. We finally learnt and started to understand that art is a long process and we need to ensure we take our time to ensure we create quality pieces. MI have certainly shown this today. We have used a step by step process to create our Martin Luther King Jr images and children were super proud at the end of the day. We will just add further sketching techniques tomorrow to finish off our creations. We will then move onto looking at Rosa Parks 🙂 Great work MI!
