Primary 1 – Autumn 1
P1 started the year by using their drawing skills to answer the question: Who is your hero?
Students started by considering who their heroes are and by representing them through sketching, symbols and collage.
Students were then introduced to artist Jean-Michel Basquiat and his theme of crowns in his work. Students also were able to practice their oil pastel skills in preparation for their final art piece in which the students used oil pastel and paint to create layers in a self-portrait. They were encouraged to add symbols and doodles to represent what we couldn’t see from their self-portrait.
