The book that Year 5 children are reading in their English lessons, Floodland, is sadly coming to an end.
As there are no images of the characters in this story, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to finish the term with a portrait lesson and allow the children to use their imagination to paint their own interpretation of a character of their own choice.
Every child had a proportions of the face and colour mixing help sheet.
Using their knowledge from the text as to what the characters may look like, they sketched then painted their portraits.
Many children chose to paint the main character Zoe, whilst others picked Munchkin, Rat, Molly, Sarah, Spat...
Children were only given primary colours, as well as black and white to experiment with tone.
