Recorder Sketchings

AllStars — Wed, 26 Aug 2009 03:15:29 +0000

We have had a couple of “Jellybeans” music lessons so far this term and are really excited to be learning to play the recorder.

Recently we used charcoal pencils to sketch some aspects of our recorders. We tried to experiment by pressing softly and more firmly, using the side of the pencil and the tip of the pencil as well.

Here are our finished sketches …..

Skeleton Art

AllStars — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 05:19:57 +0000

We’ve been studying

the human body
keeping fit and active
healthy lifestyles

so we thought it would be fun to make some skeleton artworks.

What you need:

Water colour paints

A4 white paper

Black art paper (or paint your own like we did!)

Paintbrushes

What to do:

Using the watercolours, paint stripes over the whole A4 paper
Paint the bigger paper black
Wait for the papers to dry
Photocopy some body parts
Carefully trace the body part you want onto the stripy paper
Cut out and glue onto the black paper
Hang or display in your room!

Inspiration From Hokusai

We were inspired by the painting by Hokusai, and used crayon scratching to make these artworks of waves.

We hope you like them…….
