This term we are going to have a mini topic all about our city of Dundee. I know we can’t get out and explore but we can use our existing knowledge and experience of the city plus online resources to help us. This week I would like you to research castles in Dundee and choose one to write a short piece about. You can tell me when and why it was built, if it is used now or a ruin. I would also like you to produce a drawing of the castle in pencil. You can go over the pencil in dark pen if you like. The reason we are keeping the drawing without colour is so we can focus on our observation and recording skills, on the detail of what we can see and focusing on line, shape and form. You can email me your finished work or share it on the blog if you like.
