We have really enjoyed making patterns in our gross motor art area. We have investigated making marks with a variety of resources. We\u2019ve used plungers to make circle prints.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nWe have used a selection of different types and sizes of brushes to see what marks and patterns we can create with them, such as large paint bushes, rollers, sweeping brushes and scrubbing brushes.
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After we used our tyres to make large patterns \u00a0we wondered what we could use next?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Luckily we got a special delivery. A new gross motor art tool to help us further develop our gross motor art skills.
\nWe got brand new large pattern rollers. \u00a0We couldn\u2019t wait to get a turn of them and try them out.
\nFirst we tried putting a large sheet of paper down to see what marks we could make.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We enjoyed rolling the large rollers in the paint then pushing them over the paper, but it soon got filled up and we couldn\u2019t see which patterns we had made. We decided to make it even more fun by taking the paper away. To have a larger area to explore our patterns and progress our skills even more.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nBy using the ground as our canvas, we could go further, see our marks more clearly and change direction.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nWe needed lots of paint to extend our marks, we rolled our roller in the paint and set off.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nOn one roller we had stripes.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nAnd on the other we had spots.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nWe created a wonderful pattern picture in our gross motor art area for every one to admire.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nWe all were engaged and enjoyed this experience. Everyone was keen to have a turn. We were able to wait our turn and share.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now that we have investigated patterns in our gross motor art area next we will be looking at \u201cStreet Art.\u201d We have added some pictures of local murals that are around Glasgow to inspire our children to create their own.
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nI wonder what Street Art we will be creating next?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
