Half Term Project Details and Homework Ideas

YEAR 6 – Gallery Rebels

The new project runs for the first half of the Summer term. Homework contributions can be made throughout the half term; please make sure your child brings in something that they have worked on at home. 

Below are some ideas for each project, try one of these or something else project related.

Art:

• Explore the life and artwork of a famous artist and then turn your research into a fact file or poster.
• Visit a local gallery to see what exhibitions are showing, take your sketch book and make notes about the things you see. Alternatively, use the free Google Expeditions app to explore an art gallery virtually.
• Practise drawing from observation. Choose a range of interesting objects to depict drawing pattern, shape and form.
• Collect any old tester paint pots and make a large-scale abstract painting on the back of a roll of old wallpaper or large sheet of paper!
• Take inspiration from Brian Selznick (the illustrator of Hugo) and sketch parts of your world at home.

Science:

• Draw a model of how light enters eye and allows us to see.
• Set up a mirror course in your house and see how far through your house you can make the light reflect.
• Take a photograph outside in the same spot throughout the day – what happens to the length of your shadow?
• What is a prism? Investigate what a prism is and where you can see them.

Computing:

• 3-D modelling – design an everyday item using different shapes to create a 3-D model
