Green Class at The Limes has been busy sharing their experiences of fireworks and exploring different ways to represent them through art.
The children had great fun experimenting with a range of creative materials to make their own bright and colourful fireworks. Using powder paints on the floor and on paper, they explored mixing colours and creating exciting patterns before adding glitter to make their creations sparkle. The children also used oil pastels on sugar paper, carefully making marks and shapes to represent the fireworks they had seen and talked about.
As they shared their ideas and experiences with one another, the children developed their communication skills and confidence, while using different materials helped to strengthen their creativity and fine motor skills.
The fun did not stop when the artwork was finished. The clean-up afterwards was just as enjoyable, with children enthusiastically helping to wash, wipe and tidy the creative space together.
