Architecture

We have just started to learn about the art of Architecture - the art or practice of designing and constructing buildings.

Architects help design buildings that are both safe and interesting to look at.

In class we have looked at some famous pieces of architecture, you can see them again here - maybe you can share them with your families - let them know what elements of art helped make these structures so interesting! 😊

Want to continue planning your building from home?

Print out this google doc and be an architect in and out of the school building!

You can plan out your design and be ready to 'build' as soon as we get back to school.

Do not forget to add your name to your design!

Build and decorate a tree house!

We cant forget about Henri Matisse!

When Henri Matisse could no longer paint, he did not give up, he showed Perseverance and looked for a new way to continue making art.

We can show perseverance as well by keeping happy, healthy and continuing to create even at home!

At school, we created Positive themed collages to help us stay positive, like Matisse did in his artwork - maybe you can share some of his collages with your family and friends at home?


Matisse made alot of paintings of his pets, can you create a new pet for him in his empty fish tank?
