Over the next few weeks, the Year 5–6 students will be exploring the IPC topic Being Human through art.
Students will investigate the human body, focusing on body parts, movement, and self-care. Through drawing and mixed-media activities, they will explore how the body works and express ideas about physical and mental well-being.
In our first art lesson, students learned about human body proportions and carefully observed how different body parts relate to one another. Using rulers as a measuring tool, they explored the proportions of the human figure and practised drawing the body accurately. This activity encouraged close observation and helped students develop a deeper understanding of the structure of the human body. It was wonderful to see the students thoughtfully engaging with this topic, and I look forward to seeing how their ideas and artworks develop over the coming weeks.
