We have had a great time learning new techniques and exploring ways to represent different weather or climate conditions.

It started with an inspiring assembly from Mrs Tappenden, launching this years theme of Surprise! a tiger in a tropical storm, by Henri Rousseau.

The children practised their sketching skills looking closely at tigers in different poses. We then used tracing paper to transfer these onto styrofoam tiles so that we could make our tiger prints.

After a few goes testing it out we then printed the tiger on our 3 different backgrounds and added more detail including special effects to each picture. We are really happy with the finished results and can’t wait to show you at the parents gallery this Monday afternoon. See you there!
