In Summer 1, our theme is 'The Grand Canyon.' We will explore the physical geography of the canyon, including its location, how it was formed and the contrasting environments it hosts. We will also investigate the human impact on the area.
In Art, we will study the work and style of notable artist, L.S Lowry, who was famous for painting 'stick people' in the setting of Industrial Britain. We will combine a certain palette of colours, develop our brush stroke and use techniques to depict movement.
Our class book is Butterfly Lion by Michael Morpurgo.
