In Mars class the pupils have been learning about water and rivers. The pupils learnt that rivers start high up in the hills our mountains which is called the source of the river. It then flows downhill with riverbanks at the edge of the river, then finally it opens out to the sea. Mars class had lots of fun taking part in a shared art project to replicate this process. In Creativity we have been learning about mixing tints and shades of colours, so the pupils mixed tints and shades of blue and green and used a range of different tools to paint the river and riverbanks. They also ripped paper to collage the river and add an extra level of texture and depth to their work. All of the pupils independently cut out and painted snow on top of mountains to recreate the source of the river. Mars class did a fantastic job sharing resources and space to create such a brilliant piece of work!
