The Big Draw in Years 3/4


Year 3/4's project for the Big Draw was to produce three large reproductions of paintings of landscapes, one for each of the three classes. Each painting was divided into fifteen equal parts and fifteen pupils were given a different section to transfer on to their A2 pieces of plain paper.



The hope was that when the fifteen pieces were put together they would make up a replica of the original painting.



The other pupils in class used glass pens to draw on acetate to create skylines which would be displayed on the windows in the hall.



When it was Year 3/4's turn to visit the hall they were challenged to draw things you would see in an allotment. There were detailed drawings of vegetable beds, cabbages, peas, plants, flowers and even some fabulous scarecrows.




Each pupil also drew around their hand and inserted a word to mean friendship. They then created a funky design in the hand.  These were then made into trees to display in the hall in the Big Draw exhibition.





The next day we showed off our large drawings and acetate pictures to our friends and family in our community afternoon which celebrated all the wonderful drawing we had done throughout the day.
