"Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.” – Pablo Picasso

In year 6 this term we looked at Ancient Maya to modern-day street art, children look at how artists convey a message through art, we explored how imagery, symbols can be. we have learnt the technique ‘chiaroscuro’ and where is comes from (Italian - chiaro= light scuro=dark).

Artists considered audience and impact to create powerful drawings to make their voices heard and were commissioned(with sweets) by me tp create a piece of art work using all techniques learnt through out this module and to send a message to others of something that they’re passionate about.

" The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance." - Aristotle

In year 6’s food tech we did our own version of “Come and Dine with me”.

Chefs entered a draw and we had two groups making Starters, Mains and desserts. In each session two judges were draw for a taster of the meals cooked and a score given to the team.

The chef’s had some key ingredients for their meals, peppers for starters, salmon for mains and pineapple for desserts. The chefs were encouraged to research online for recipes with thses ingredients. The results were amazing, everything looked delicious and smelled amazing.

Well done year 6 on completing the challenge.
