Other Curriculum Areas

On this page, you will find a range of activities for different subjects. These are extra ideas which could be done after English and Maths each day - maybe in the afternoons. Each week, choose one piece of learning that you are especially proud of, take a photo of it and ask you parents to upload it onto Tapestry. Miss Williams will be looking at your work this week and she can't wait to see what you've been up to.

Art

There has been a lot in the news recently about the Black Lives Matter movement. This is because, sometimes, people are treated differently because of the colour of their skin. It is really important to respect and learn about other cultures so, for the next 3 weeks, we will be exploring the work of 3 different black artists.

This week, we will learn about Kimmy Cantrell and look at the amazing, creative and imaginative ceramic African marks that he makes.

First, go to his website and have a look at some of his incredible creations. https://kimart.com/works/faces/

Then, look at the pictures below for inspiration. Also, watch the video below where Kimmy talks about his art and shows you how he makes it.

After that, collect some recycled materials from around your house (cardboard, bubble wrap, newspaper, wrapping paper, tin foil etc) and have a go at making your own African mask in the style of Kimmy.
