Dear Yr 3 Families
In art last term and this we are linking our art with our Term 3 enquiry project Light. We have been looking at doing some photography and exploring what makes a good composition and why we like certain images. How does each photograph make us feel?...and so on.
As a home learning project, I've asked the children to take some photos using the prompt below, choose one they consider their favourite and ask their grownup to email it to school for my attention.
CONTRAST
The goal is to take an image based around the theme of contrast.
This could be as simple as taking an image featuring contrasting colours;
light and dark; or you could make the subject of your photograph the source of
contrast - movement versus stillness; nature versus manmade; new versus
old... There are no wrong answers!
I will make an exhibition of these photos (date tbc). We will be having a visiting photographer coming into school to look at the exhibition and share their wisdom about photography with us.
It's a really exciting project. I can't wait to see what our budding artist photographers come up with!
Thank you so much
Best wishes
Zoe Sharples
