Beeches Junior School
Art and Design
Year 3 have been studying photography this term. They have been researching the history of cameras and photography, learning about composition and even trying out some camera and filter effects too.
Year 5 have been studying animation in art this term. They begun by researching the history of animation and exploring the work of some famous animators, looking at their unique styles. Year 5 dived into the animation techniques of stop-motion and clay-mation, designed their own characters and had a go at creating short stop-motion films.
Along with our skills driven art learning journeys, here at Beeches we also get to create some art inspired by our broader curriculum topics , whole school celebrations and at our creative clubs.
Year 4 have been studying relief printing inspired by Hokusai this term. They have been learning about different types of printing, planned their own designs, and then created their own stamps using a variety of techniques.
Year 6 have been studying Graffiti art this term, inspired by artists like Banksy. They have created their own designs, made their own stencil and then used spray paint to create a finished masterpiece.
At Beeches, we are very proud of our wonderful displays around the school. They are a great way to celebrate the broader curriculum and also to show off our inspirational homework.
Here's some more incredible art work created at Beeches Junior School across the year groups.
