Task 3
Science
LO: I know which parts of a plant we can eat.

Extra activity
Art
Observational drawing is drawing what you see and we have done this activity in class before.
It can be a flower, a person, a still life, a landscape, whatever. But it’s drawing what you see in front of you as realistically and as true to life as possible.
Observational drawing is a great exercise in seeing.
When we look at something with the intent of drawing it, we tend to look more carefully than usual. We see, truly see, the shapes, the patterns, the colors and the shadows.
Choose a piece of fruit or a vegetable to sketch. Look closely at the shape and patterns.
Here are a few ideas.

Morning, team! Your tasks today are maths, art and science!
First, though, a quick word from Miss Wilson…
Happy Wednesday! As you know, we should have been going on our Y6 residential today until Friday. I’m absolutely gutted we can’t go. It would have been a fab celebration after a tough week and you guys deserve the best celebrations for how hard you work. For the rest of this week, I’ve decided to scrap maths for a Virtual Residential where you could win the title of Camp Champion or Camp Hero. Off we go!
Y6 Residential – Day One
Click here for a video explaining today’s activities.
Click here for a summary of the Virtual Residential Day One Tasks.
- – Use two colours from opposite sides of the colour wheel (a warm colour and a cool colour such as red and blue/orange and green/yellow and purple) as this will create more of a contrast. These are called complementary colours!
- – Think about where your light is coming from and where your shadow is going to be
- – What colour do you think the shadow will be? Will it be the warm colour or the cool colour?
- – What colour do you think the lighter parts will be? Warmer or cooler colour?
- – Fill the page as best you can
- – Don’t forget to look at the detail on the object as well its outline
- – Maybe sketch it out in pencil first before going into colour
- – Think about form. The object is more than likely going to be three-dimensional
– Johann Sebastian Bach
