"Charcoal, photocopy, watercolour" Year 5



Try this really effective, inexpensive lesson. Using charcoal students sketch chosen image. We chose peacock feathers and interesting pots as our subject matter. When complete, photocopy each image three times and clean up the photocopier! Now the students have three clean images to collage onto a dark background. Students add a splash of watercolour so finished artwork has a hint of colour. My Year 5 students were very proud of their finished product and also had the original image to keep. Love this lesson!!!
