Art - Colour Mixing Morning 17th January 2023

During the morning art activities, a round robin of art workshops were set up in each year group. The children visited the different classrooms in turn to learn a new colour mixing technique.

 

Colour Mixing Activities:

  • REC - Using Chalk and stencils 
  • Y1 - Using magazines to sort and find Primary Colours
  • Y2 - Experimenting mixing Primary Colours
  • Y3 - Tones, Tints & Shades
  • Y4 - Colour Mixing
  • Y5 - Colour Matching

Reception activities

As part of the round robin set of art activities, children from Years one and two visited Reception class to enjoy the workshop. The children used chalk and their smudging skills to mix primary colours. They had great fun and really enjoyed seeing what secondary colours they could create!

Year One activity

While in the Year One classroom, KS1 children looked through magazines to find primary colours. They practiced their cutting skills and sorting each colour into the right section,

Year Two activity

The Year One children experimenting with mixing Primary Colours.

Year Three activity

 

The children in KS2 took part in a tonal shading session designed to support them in applying a variety of tonal shading techniques.

The children learnt that a tone is a mixture of a colour with white, which increases light, while a shade is a mixture with black, which increases darkness. Both processes affect the resulting colour mixture's saturation

 

As part of the round robin set of art activities, children from Year 5 are working on tone and shade.

Year 4 activities

Year 5 - Colour Matching

Special Assembly - Wednesday 11th January  & Thursday 12th January

Before the holidays, Miss Kennedy and Mr Webber informed the children that, in the first few weeks back, there was going to be a special "book assembly”.

The assembly would give the children a chance to speak about a book that they thought was particularly good.

The challenge for them was to persuade Miss Kennedy to buy their book for the new school library; the response from children of all year groups was astonishing - so much so that we needed more than one assembly to hear everyone that wanted to speak!

 

Well done to all the children who spoke so passionately about their book, we are so proud of you and we know you will have inspired others to volunteer at our next book assembly.

 

Here are some pictures for you to enjoy.
