In the Amazon Rainforest there are several tribes. They traditionally decorate their faces and bodies with natural dyes and paints. Each decoration is significant to their tribe and their traditions.

Try and draw a pencil sketch of an Amazonian Tribal person. Think about the shape of their face, position of eyes, nose and mouth. Do they have decorative face paintings? Are they wearing jewellery? How is their hair styled? Think about using shading to create light and dark areas.

Top tip: Sketch lightly first in-case you need to adjust your drawing.

Literacy

 Writing task- All Groups

As residents in care homes are not allowed any visitors at the moment, we thought it would be a nice idea to write a letter to them to try and cheer them up and brighten their day! You might want to tell the person who will receive the letter  a bit about yourself and what you have been doing during this lockdown to keep busy. You could tell them about your family and friends and even what you are most looking forward to do after this lockdown is over.

We are hopefully going to email these letters to a local care home to share with their residents. We would prefer you to type your letter and practise your computer skills and email it to us, If you cant type it, just write it and send a picture of it to us.
