MILD: Expressive Art – A Splash of Watercolour.

June 3, 2020 User deactivated Leave a comment

I have always found watercolour painting beautiful. I enjoy watching the paint spread across the water that is put down first.

It can take some time to learn how to use watercolours correctly, until I learned a little trick that can give the same effect very easily.

Follow the instructions in the sway below.

Once you have completed the activity you can use it as a back ground to stick drawings or pictures on top of. Or you could write your name, quote or phrase on top too.

Remember to share your results with your teacher through seesaw or email. Have a great time with some felt tips and water.

Biography of an Artist – Spicy/Hot

June 2, 2020 User deactivated 2 Comments

Today you are going to be learning about some of the features of a biography before planning and writing your own.

I have suggested that you base your biography on an artist but, as our theme this fortnight is Expressive Arts, please feel free to choose an artist, sculptor, architect, musician, dancer or actor as your subject.

The Sway below contains all the information required for you to create your biography.

Don’t forget to set your work out neatly, taking a new paragraph every time there is a change of subject. Please share your completed biography with your teacher, and don’t forget to come back on the Blog to let me know how you got on. 😊

Good morning everyone!

Let’s take a virtual tour of Aberdeen Art Gallery – https://bit.ly/2AR37X5

With a duration of 2h30 minutes, we highly recommend that you view the tour throughout the week. If you prefer, focus on a specific gallery (Sculpture Court, Collecting Art etc).

Throughout week 1, we are going to focus on identifying our favourite piece of art within the gallery, sharing our thoughts/opinions and researching the artist.

Click on the Sway below to see everything you will need to complete this activity. An example has also been provided. Good luck and remember to share your work with your class teacher.

Hola Methlick!

Ms Rees and I have got a challenge for you today, can you guess? I think it might be a bit tricky at first but it always is and in any language you do it. Even for me they are still tricky in English, but that is what makes it fun!

Trabalenguas…..that is the Spanish word for Tongue Twisters! Now, tongue twisters are one of many exercises that actors, actresses, singers and anyone who has to talk for a big audience do at some point of their careers to explore their voices.

For you, this will help you to improve your confidence, have your voice in control and play. You can do this with everyone at home. I will include some in Spanish and French.
