Painting

On the last day of term we had a special Antarctica themed day. Most of this day was spent painting. We began by experimenting with painting techniques e.g. finger painting, dabbing with sponges, applying paint with brushes... The students also had to experiment with colour mixing. Initially they were only given blue, black and white and had to mix these colours to create a variety of shades. After experimenting time, each student was given a fresh piece of paper to draw a chalk outline of Antarctic penguins. They then had to use their three colours (and orange for beaks and feet) to mix, blend and create a painted penguin.
