Arts week in Y1

Lesson: Art and design

Class: Y1 Year: 2018 - 2019

This week, as part of our arts week, children in Y1 learned about some different ways of creating art. Children looked etching, scratching and collages.  Y1 were tasked to create a variety of different art work in the style of British artist Norman Ackroyd and the famous illustrator and author Eric Carle.  Children begin to understand the processes needed in creating these types of artwork, such as, waxing, painting, designing a template, making a rough copy, finding resources and then finally creating the finished piece. Our finished artwork looks amazing and they will all be on display very soon. Amazing art year 1!
