He was delighted to see that we are brushing our teeth everyday in school.
Roses
We have been learning about Charles Rennie Mackintosh. We have enjoyed looking at the iconic flower design that he created. We created our very own design using pencil and pen. We drew curved lines to create the rose and straight lines to create the background.
I can respond to the work of artists and designers by discussing my thoughts and feelings. I can give and accept constructive comment on my own and others’ work. EXA 1-07a
