Lunch
Time to get some fuel for your body and your brain! Have a rest, and come back for Art after your break.
3rd lesson: Art
The Tate museum posted some lovely inspiration for creating some artwork:
Notice how many of the artists include the the window or door frame in their drawing, painting or photograph.
Spend time looking carefully before you begin and keep looking closely as you draw. Think about the shapes you see, whether you want to use thick or thin lines, paying attention to light and dark.
If you get stuck, leave your drawing somewhere safe, then go back to it later or the next day as artists do.
Enjoy this calm drawing time and don't forget to send us a photo if you want to! year6@bgfjs.org
