Y1 Matisse Collage 23.2.24

Year 1 have been exploring and experimenting with collage techniques. We have tried paper, cut outs and mixed media collages. Matisse was used as our inspiration for the use of cut outs collage. We worked in groups to produce a whole class mixed media collage and then applied these techniques to a final individual piece linked to our geography learning about hot and cold climates. Finally we thoughtfully evaluated our final pieces:
 
"I like the sun because orange is my favourite colour. I like the cheetah. Next time I would move the sun down and make it a night time picture" Arthur (Beech Class)
 
"I like the tissue paper bits. I like the sunset where it goes on the grass and makes it yellow. Next time I would put the sunset on that side" Alara (Beech Class)
 
"I like the cheetah and I like the blue sky, the pretend sand and the see through bit. Next time I will use real sand and not put these things on it. I  would make a pond as well" Maddison (Beech Class)
