We love wearing our artist's hats in Year 1 and in order to make thoughtful colour choices for our own seascapes, we have learnt about colour mixing and created our own colour wheels. We learnt that adding white creates tints and adding black creates shades.
In our next art lesson we used our colour knowledge to create watery paper to print on for our seascapes. We used a variety of art techniques to make them: oil pastels, smudging chalk pastels, paint washes, brusho and sponge printing.
We also had an exciting visit from an author! Dr Leema Jabbar came to read her new book called Hana and the Hairy Bod Rapper to us. We loved the story about loving yourself for your differences and also learnt lots of incredible new facts about the hair on our bodies and it's amazing functions!
