Reception Art

Today we have been recapping our work on Kandinsky. We remembered that his artwork consists of lots of circles. We used the primary colours red, blue and yellow and talked about the secondary colours purple, green and orange that were created when we mixed the primary colours together. 

We then created our own Kandinsky inspired Snail to represent the Snail from the Snail and the Whale.

 

Kandinsky Art in Reception

This week we revisited our learning about the artist Kandinsky. We remembered so many facts that Miss Hailey was so proud of us. Here are some examples of the facts we remembered:

” Kandinsky was a teacher. He didn’t want to be a teacher anymore. He wanted to do a different job. He wanted to be an artist.” – Harry

”He was abstract. That means different things from his imagination.” – Jack

”He painted circles.” – Elena

“He used bright and dark colours.” – Alex

”Kandinsky used paints. He makes pictures of his music.” – Primrose

”Kandinsky lived in Russia.” – Joe

”He used paints to paint shapes.” – Jomi

”Kandinsky painted his own stuff, made up things his head.” – Louie

 

Here is a display of our class  masterpiece! We made Kandinsky inspired snails 🐌. Check your Evidence Me app for photos of your own child paining their snails.

Reception Dino Day 2022 🦖

What a fantastic day in Reception today to mark the end of our Dinosaur topic.
We had great fun reading dinosaur stories, making dinosaur skeleton pictures, making binoculars, role playing in our costumes, playing dinosaur games and best of all meeting a gigantic T-Rex 🦖 who decided to invade our PE lesson!
Thank you to all for the wonderful costumes provided. They really brought the day to life.
