Year 1
As part of Year 1's art lessons in Autumn term, the children learnt all about how lines can be used in art. The children started by exploring simple straight and wavy lines using wool. The children were able to use the pieces of wool to make horizontal, diagonal, vertical, wavy and cross-hatch lines. The children then used pencils and their sketch books to practice these further.
Next, the children explored how lines could be used to make a group piece of art. We chose to look at under the sea, used some music and coral videos to inspire us, then used a variety of materials to draw lines with. This included pens, pencils, crayons, chalks and charcoal.
Within their sketch books the children have also been exploring light and shade, and have used these techinques to sketch pines cones and pumpkins.
Year 1 have moved on to look at paint and colour mixing. Today we explored the primary colours. We used these to create an art piece for our books. Some children started to explore mixing primary to make secondary colours.
