Art Club- 6th November

Today was our first Artclub session of this year.  Over the next few weeks we will be creating two large paintings and sculptures that will be displayed in Tropical World in Leeds.
The first painting is inspired by the book “The Great Kapok Tree” by Lynne Cherry and our Year 3 and 4 pupils who attend the Artclub will be creating their artwork around this story.  We read the book and the children agreed on the essential design elements within the painting.  They then set about drawing their own ideas on how it should look.

The book “A Walk in the Rainforest” by Kristin Joy Pratt is the stimulus behind the second painting.  It will be made up of the alphabet which our Year 5 and 6 pupils will be creating.  Today they have chosen the letters they will be working on, out of a basket, and have been researching and drawing things you will see in the rainforest beginning with those letters.
