Art

As you may know, in topic this half term we have been learning about different artists and sculptures. The children have been eagerly waiting to begin their own sculpting, and they were delighted to start this week.

The children took inspiration from other sculptors and designed their own in their topic book. Afterwards, we began sculpting using soap. The children spent time practicing and refining new skills, using teaspoons, paperclips, pencils and paper towels.

Over the next few weeks, we will be creating several sculptures; here are a few pictures from today’s exploratory session:

Help at home – ask your child to talk to you about what they did and the skills they have learnt. Can you create some soap sculptures together at home?
