Primary art. Through the hedge
Description
Lisa Craig from Waycroft Primary in Bristol demonstrates a Key Stage 2 art lesson called Through the Hedge . The aim of the lesson is to focus the children's attention on the outdoor natural, environment and to combine their observations with their key art skills as well as creating a piece of art the children can be really proud of. The class look at existing landscape artists work and at previous work by students in this topic. Using cardboard viewfinders and digital cameras, the children then leave the classroom to sketch and record details of a hedge. Back indoors the children enlarge their sketches and create a painting using good quality cartridge paper and fine-tipped paint brushes. At the end of the lesson the children have a chance to admire and critique each other's work and look at areas to improve for the future.
