| 0 comments

Last week we looked at the colour pink and how it made the you feel…

Pink is traditionally associated with love, hearts and flowers. Some of the paintings in Pablo Picasso’s Rose Period help to convey those expressions of love. Here are some images of his work during this period – https://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Flower+Picasso+Rose+Period&FORM=IRBPRS&=0.

You might enjoy finding out a little bit more about Pablo Picasso and the different styles of his work. This clip will help you get started – https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/clips/z6brwmn

You would maybe enjoy creating your own Picasso styled painting from the Rose Period. You might want to style this on a portrait, a flower or even a heart. For examples of how to do this, these clips might help – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iKmH84hoZo or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auWrjhpppmc

Over the last few weeks, you may have been spending a lot more time outdoors and may have been using lots of natural resources. ‘The 13 Story Treehouse’ is a book you may wish to read over the summer or listen to it being read in the following clips – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeVjrDd9fUMhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufLbi6Ynxno , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LjYm-Gnt5s , and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxtecn0qtzM

You could design your very own 13 Story Treehouse and then attempt to make a model of this with as many natural resources you can find. Will it have a see-through swimming pool, a lemonade fountain or even a marshmallow machine? Let your imaginations run wild and see what you can come up with! Don’t forget to post pictures of your creations!

Time now for a challenge! All this designing is hungry work!

Why don’t you attempt to make a solar oven to toast marshmallows!

All you need is a box, a poli-pocket or clingfilm and some kitchen foil – oh and don’t forget the marshmallows and chocolate! And the sun…
