Writing an invitation
Hello! I hope you all had a lovely weekend and you’re enjoying Art Week so far. This week, as you know, we are working towards hosting an online art gallery on Friday. You can tweet or e-mail pictures of your work (by Thursday please) and we will add them to the gallery for review.
Literacy lessons at a glance:
Today – invitation writing
Tomorrow – reading comprehension/reading for information (*remember to send your work)
Friday – writing a fact file (about an artist) and reviewing work in an online gallery
Every day – The Daily Draw
Today, use the invitation from your teachers to write your own invitation for your family or friends. You could print the template or you could write your own invitation on a piece of paper or card, or in your jotter. Share pictures of your work via Twitter or by e-mail, or comment on the school blog.

You can also choose any of the options on the art grids to complete. I’d be interested to know what you’ve found interesting and if you’ve learned anything new. So far, at home, we’ve looked at shape, colour and pattern.
