AUTUMN LANDSCAPE

As it’s autumn, the season when the trees lose their leaves, we drew and painted an autumn landscape in order to work the colours of autumn: the warm colours.

First, we saw some examples of autumn landscapes in order to have an idea about what to draw. Later we drew and painted our landscapes with crayons, using warm colours such as orange, yellow, brown, red… we could also use some cold colours if it’s needed. To finish the activity, we passed some paint (yellow or orange) over the entire picture to make it darker and create an effect like the sunrise or the sunset.

Here we have the works of ours pupils:  

MUSHROOMS

Here we have the second activity that we did with 6th grade, the mushrooms. Those mushrooms were made to decorate the corridor of “Cicle Superior” during autumn. Next, we have the steps that the pupils of 6th grade wrote about how they created their mushrooms:

1, We took a balloon and we inflated it.

2, We covered it with newspaper and glue with water.

3, Once it dried we exploted the balloon and we had the upper part of the mushroom.

4, We stamped a paper roll on a piece of carton and that was the body of the mushroom.

5, We covered the body with newspaper, glue and water.

6, We painted the mushroom.

7, We put the foot and the hat of the mushroom together with silicon.

8, The mushroom is finished.

 

THE ART CLASS FOLDER

The first activity that we usually do in this subject is creating an art folder. In it, pupils will keep all the projects that they will do throughout the academic year. In this case, they decorated the cover of the folder with their own name. To do so they draw their names using different kinds of letters, which they chose freely, and painted them with different materials (crayons, pencils and markers). Once this was done, they glued their name on a colour cardboard of their choice. The last step consisted in folding over the cardboard. THE ART CLASS FOLDER WAS READY!
