​Writing Through Art

Year 4

Overview

A project where London, art and ICT combine to produce staggering results.

This 5 week project, in collaboration with Kenwood House, invites Year 4 pupils to study a different painting from the Kenwood collection each week, and then produce a piece of writing inspired by the painting.  As well as developing pupil interest and understanding of art, this project Increases awareness of cultural opportunities within London and helps the children explore how they might make use of web based resources.

The results are amazing, and are shared via a collaborative blog where pupils can also share their own favourite paintings and display their shared writing.
