Art Challenges!

We thought it would be fun to set some art challenges! 

You could ask a parent to email MR Dickson your finished pieces for our school Twitter page and / or our P7 page- we love to see all your fab work 😍

 

Challenge 11 and 12: Leavers Art

P7, this is the final art challenge that we will be setting you. crying

We have thought of an extra special art task - something that will allow us to keep a little bit of you with us at The Armstrong. wink 

 

We want as many of you as possible to paint a stone / clay pot / salt-dough tile or circle / shell art etc. for us to keep in our school garden. This way, we can not only brighten up our garden area, but also think back to our wonderful P7 class of 2019/20.

 

**You will need to put a coat or two of clear varnish or PVA glue to help preserve your design and keep it weather proof**

 

When you have your piece of art completed, please ask a parent to accompany you to school where you can leave it under the canopy at the main entrance.

 

You can leave your piece of art under the canopy from 9am - 3pm any day from Monday 15th June until Friday 26th June.

 

We can't wait to see what you all come up with. smiley

 

Below are some ideas to get you thinking...

Challenge 8: Famous London Landmarks

 

Your art challenge this week is to draw / sketch/ paint a famous London Landmark.

 

Why not upload your finished piece into Google Classroom to share with our class? Alternatively, you can email your picture to your teacher or send it to Mr Dickson for Twitter.

 

 

Challenge 7: Outdoor Art.

The weather this week is supposed to be beautiful! To make the most of the outdoors, we want you to try to create a 'picture' or 'scene' using flowers (but don't pick protected flowers such as bluebells), twigs, grasses etc. that you find outside your house.

 

**Remember to keep safe and wash your hands once you have finished your artwork.**

 

Here are a few examples to inspire you...
