We have been painting bright spring pictures inspired by Van Gogh
“The yellow at the top is the flowers”
“This is getting perfect”
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 other’s work (EXA0-07a)
While making firework and Diwali pictures we used crayon shavings to make the patterns. We were encouraged to use pincer grip to pick up the shavings. Pincer grip is very important for fine motor development and handwriting. We then put the pictures into the oven so the crayons melted together and then added glitter for some sparkle.
