Lesson 1

Complete illustrations for the alphabet books created in class

From reading and writing this week:

Lesson 2

Your task is to carefully follow instructions to draw a Fox.

Fold your piece of paper in half and then in half again - this will give you the different sections of the page so that you can make a drawing that fills your page well.

When you have finished, colour your fox in to make a piece of Art that you are proud of.
