Willowbank School, KilmarnockThe boys and girls in the Pine class have been exploring a variety of materials and resources commonly used in the art room. These were used as part of our sensory art lesson.
We listened to music and enjoyed guessing the scents of the play doh. The children were all given the opportunity to feel and independently manipulate materials such as fluffy fur, crinkly paper, shiny card, tickly brushes, cold cubes, wet sponges…
Super successful learners in the Pine class. Well done everyone!
The Oak class have been extremely busy in the art room. The boys recreated the famous ‘Berwick upon Tweed’ painting by LS Lowry. They used recycled paper and card and decided to go with a bright colours theme.
We discussed perspective and the clever use of horizon lines in paintings. We also talked about how simplistic yet effective the stick people figures are in the foreground. Super successful learners today.
Wonderful work by some budding young artists!
The Sungazers are finding more about various types of pets. The boys investigated the art room resources and found some lovely tactile, sensory materials which were used to make these fabulous pictures.
Lots of excellent fine motor skills and independent work from these confident individuals! Wonderful!
