The children worked through the process of drawing a person using the formula of 7 parts. They had to use a ruler to measure 7 even parts, then rule straight lines across the page before working step by step to draw a body. To follow on from this process the children observed other people working in the class and had to draw them. The proportion and angles of the bodies was much improved from the first time we practiced drawing a person.
We finished painting the pattern/colour compositions. The children really had to think about the colours they put together, using the language of complimentary, primary and secondary colours. They became very confident in mixing the colours from the limited pallet of red, yellow and blue paint. The discuss and group decision making about the colours become more purposeful as the compositions took shape.
Check out the results..
