Our first week back

Class Two have been studying swimming pool Pop Art by David Hockney.  Before doing their own David Hockney swimming pool artwork, the children thought about what actions a swimmer might make; how their hair might fan out in the water and the patterns the water makes in a swimming pool.  They used oil pastels to create a swimmer and water patterns, then washed over it all with blue watercolour.  They found that the oil pastels resisted the watercolours.  Class Two have also enjoyed dissecting a daffodil to examine the parts of a flower.
