Haughmond have been very excited this week as we have been artistic creating lots of Mexican art. We learnt about Mexico on Monday and compared it to where we live. We have been listening to a variety of Mexican music too !

On Monday we used clay to create some Mexican themed pots which we will paint today. We also made our own day of the dead inspired masks.

On Tuesday have started our class Mexican flag made out of tissue paper using the skill of collaging. In the afternoon we looked at the traditional Mexican folk art looking at the sun and moon art. We used the skill sketching first to get and outline. Then we practised our watercolour painting skills to carefully paint out pictures.

Today we are looking forward to painting our Mexican clay pots, learning the Mexican hat dance and carrying on with out tissue paper flag.

Below are some of the exciting things we have been up too this week !
