Thankyou all for your ideas, Maza, as usual you have given me lots of reminders about types of art we could look at.
I have looked at the website, some good ideas there Thankyou for that signposting.
I love the zig zag pipe cleaners for lightening bolts, though I expect a lot of zig and zags from these LO’s as they crumple them!
I can see there may be an overuse, than I would like, of templates, as you all know I do favour experience over final product usually and loose parts, but at least shapes may need to be used so that the theme is obvious for the public viewing...but I will make sure it is as close to children’s own art as I can.
The mums definitely want a sunshine on top, with handprints so that’s a good one to start with this week.
Rainbows are also on their list so I will look at wrapping wool. The ice idea has really stimulated my thinking around transient activities.
I took my role really seriously and have actually planned an activity for every week this term already, linking to the nursery as some go there too, but I rather got ahead of myself with a lack of knowledge about the village I feel, as I will now abandon that to fit in the Christmas tree decorating. I will know for next year!
Back to the internet to browse the website more.
