Week 3 Year 6 Visual Arts Activity
As previously mentioned in my blog Mr Sheedy and myself are organising sketch books for each of the students to use during art sessions. Please encourage your son or daughter to use it and to draw, sketch or design any of the images they see or enjoy creating at home, inside, outside in the backyard at the local park etc. I look forward to seeing these pictures please share them with me via email or a google doc if you can.
I would just like to touch base with all of my year 6 students. If you have not already completed your artist study I would now like you to start finishing off and sharing with me please. You can share these by emailing me or sharing your google doc.
If you do not have the questions I will share them with you now
