Year 3 - Mental Health Day
Year 3 have been exploring their emotions through art. They enjoyed looking at works of art from Picasso's Blue and Rose Period, noting their emotional responses to each piece of art and why they might feel that way. They commented that the art from his Blue Period was sombre and gloomy, which made them feel sad and low. In contrast, the works from his Rose Period featured cheerful oranges and reds, which made them feel uplifted and positive. They insightfully said that perhaps these colours reflect Picasso's mood at different points in his life. They then created their very own pieces of art based on an emotion of their choice & spoke very eloquently about their use of colour and materials. Year 3 very much enjoyed exploring the mind through the medium of art.
