Charles Rennie Mackintosh

P6a have been learning about our very own artist Charles Rennie Mackintosh. We found out that he came from Glasgow but was more appreciated in Europe during his lifetime. For these drawings we looked at the specific shapes which Mackintosh used. We also used the effects which he used to create flowers. Can you spot any features of Mackintosh in our drawings?

 

We are also planning an educational visit to Scotland Street School as part of our Victorians topic.

Autumn


Primary 4 took advantage of the dry weather to go into the playground to look for signs of Autumn. They were going to create a setting in their writing and needed to use all of their senses to write their plan. While they were there they worked together to gather leaves of different colour, shape, size and texture to use in their art work later on in the day.
