2023 - 2024
Class 3 kicked off their Stone Age topic by creating tools from soap. We investigated ways of carving the soap and sculpted the tools slowly to create arrowheads and chopping rocks.
2022-2023
Mixing colours- We mixed colours using the primary colours and black and white. We have been learning about Lowry and he only used these five colours. We then used our new colours to paint a seascape.

Soap Carving 07.01.22
To kick off our Stone Age theme, we looked at Stone Age tools. Using sculpting techniques with knives and clay tools we created hand axes out of soap. We discussed cutting, scraping, smoothing and knapping. Look at our results!
Art work inspired by James Mayhew
01.03.22
James Mayhew, the author and illustrator of Once Upon a Tune, visited Cheddon Fitzpaine Church School. We were lucky enough to attend a workshop where he showed us the different techniques that he uses to draw his illustrations. We were so inspired by him that we decided to create our own illustrations based on a story in Once Upon a Tune- The Sorcerer's Apprentice. We first drew a draft in our sketchbooks. We tried the different techniques that James Mayhew had shown us. We then looked at each other's work and gave each other feedback which we then used to edit our illustrations for our final piece. For our final piece, we added The Sorcerer's Apprentice sheet music- just like James Mayhew did throughout Once Upon a Tune.
