Primary 4/5 have been busy recreating the solar system using oil pastels.  Our main focus of today’s lesson was to blend two or more colours using oil pastels.  We had to choose relevant colours for each planet and blend the colours together using our fingers.  This was much trickier than we thought it was going to be.

We also had to ensure that our planets were in the right order from the Sun.  We have each made a little mnemonic to help us to remember the order of the planets.
