Art

Tints and Shades of Blue

These works of art are all very different – but can you work out what is the same?

That’s right – they each have different shades of blue in them!

Today we are going to explore tints and shades of blue. 

If you have some paints or pastels at home try making your own tints and shades of blue. Start with blue then add increasing amounts of white for tints or black for shades. Talk to someone at home about what you notice as you add in black or white. You could create your own colour chart, picture or just have fun exploring what happens!

Or why not go on a hunt around the house to see how many different blue things you can spot? You might like to gather some objects and create your own piece of 3D art…

Some super time diaries – so glad to see you all got outside too!

What a creative bunch you all are!

Good Morning! I am doing some training this morning so please work from the blog. I will see you this afternoon for our catch up session! It is such a beautiful day so do make sure you get outside and enjoy the sunshine too!

Please can you also have a go at learning to spell put and push – maybe try playing our tricky word noughts and crosses game! There is also this anagram game you can play which looks at lots of our tricky words.

Harmony

Can we find spirals under the sea?

Yesterday we watched a video of creature like this:

Can you remember what it is? How do you know?

Can you describe a spiral or tell someone at home why it is a special shape?

Spirals can be found everywhere in nature – even under the sea…

What do you know about these spirals? Which do you find the most interesting?

Have a go at drawing some spirals – try starting from the middle and swirling outwards and then from the outside swirling in. Does one way work best? You could make spirals out of playdough or draw them onto tinfoil or even in shaving foam. We quite like this paper plate sea snail art as well! Don’t forget to decorate your spirals with stripes, spikes, or other patterns…

Here is some of Tuesday’s work – well done everyone!
