As part of our famous artists topic this term we have been learning about Picasso and have been very busy creating our own Picasso style art works.

We took part in in a whole class challenge to make funny faces – everyone drew  2 eyes, a nose and a mouth and then we swapped.  The challenge was to make to make sure that we each still  had 2 eyes, a nose and a mouth at the end before we glued them together!

We learned that when Picasso was sad he painted using shades of blue and this was called The Blue Period.  We mixed different shades of blue and created our own “Blue Period” paintings.

This term we are practising to write our surnames. So, just like Picasso, we have been signing our artwork with our surnames!

We have been enjoying listening to the stories The Day the Crayons Quit and The Day the Crayons Came Home.

We took part in a team challenge to use crayons to draw things the wrong colour – just like in the story!
