Ambleside Online Year 1 so far: Artist Study

This has been going quite well. Following the Ambleside Curriculum schedule, I put the picture for the fortnight on the iPad home screen, and also print off some postcard size pictures of the work. These go up on the wall while we are studying the artist and then at the end of term they'll go into a photo album of all the artists and pictures we've done.

The first week the children would look at the picture for a time and then tell it back to me as best they could. I might also read something about the artist or picture. The second week we would get paints or another medium out and they would make a copy of it. These would go up on the wall. That's it! Very simple but pretty successful - we've really enjoyed this part of "school".
