Session Outline Discussion

•Discuss with the children why we are not using paint for our template printing.

• Discuss with the children implication of using flour. (Better for the environment, but can be messy.)

• Discuss the best locations and how many prints they should make each, so as not to cause harm to the environment.

Main Activity • Children to choose a shape template. Can they describe their shape? • Children to explore their outdoor environment for a suitable place for their

artwork. • Children to place their template onto the floor and shake the flour shaker

carefully over, so that it falls into the centre shape. • Children to lift their template to reveal their shape. Differentiation HA - Thinking carefully about the placement of their shape template in terms of ground cover and positioning. Discuss the properties of their chosen shape for the template. LA- Help with placing the template and shaking the flour. Extension Can they create a pattern with a friend?
