HOME LEARNING

In addition to designing and delivering a varied art curriculum I provide students with opportunities to develop their learning outside of the classroom. This page showcases examples of recent home learning activities which I have designed and facilitated.

​Colour theory  (year 5- age 9-10) 

To further embed skills and knowledge introduced in lessons on colour theory, students were challenged to create their own found object colour wheels. Students had to depict the primary, secondary and tertiary colours in the correct order on the colour wheel using only objects available in their home environments.

​Yayoi Kusama re-mixed  (year 5- age 9-10) 

In response to the work of Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama, students were set the challenge of creating personal responses to her artistic practise using new media and processes. The repeated multi-colour dot motif featured in Yayoi Kusama's Obliteration Room and her pumpkin motif proved particularly inspirational. Students were encouraged to take creative risks and to experiment.

Piet Mondrian re-mixed  (year 5 & 6- age 9-11) 

In response to the work of Dutch artist Piet Mondrian, students were set the challenge of creating personal responses to his artistic practise using new materials and processes. Piet Mondrian's use of strong lines, geometric shapes and primary colours provided inspiration for these artworks. Students were encouraged to take creative risks and to develop problem solving skills by using only items and materials available in their homes .

Students were encouraged to develop problem solving skills by using only objects from their home environments to create their repetitive pattern designs.
