Sketchbook Habit-Crazy Collage and Picture Paragraphs!

Keeping a sketchbook is a great way of keeping track of creative ideas and getting in the habit of regular drawing.

All week Year 3 will be looking at examples of how real artists (specialising in both 2D and 3D artwork) use their sketch books to record and trial their ideas. They will also add to their own sketchbooks-recording their own innovative ideas from several fun projects.

They started today with some crazy collage, where they used pictures or words from magazines as well as sketching to produce a finished picture. As you can see from the photos lots of merriment was had by all and some amusing and clever pictures produced.




For their second task they were given the job of rewriting a paragraph of text. Their challenge was to replace as many of the words as possible with pictures instead. Look carefully at the pictures-can you work out the missing text?
