Art

In Art this week d to link our
science lessons with our Art lesson. For our first Art lesson we had a fun
painting activity and painted blindfolded. This activity was a fantastic way
to explore and develop our senses. Without using our eyes how can we see?
Image? Recognize? For our second lesson we played a vision game by looking at
images with optical illusions. This was linked to the making of binoculars.
