During our art lessons we have been looking at different aspects of WW2, as this links to their Topic work.  During this lesson we looked at the affect that music can have on our thoughts and emotions.  We listened to different pieces of music and had to select the colours it made us think of and do different mark making on our paper.  After that, we thought of different ways that we can use art to express feelings and emotions associated with World War 2. We discussed what theme of the War they may want to portray in their art work and also what medium they may use.

As you can see from the pictures below the children chose a wide variety of themes and art medium including collage, paint, pastels and charcoal.

This was a very thought provoking lesson and the children concentrated well and produced wonderful artwork.
