Students have completed a variety of tasks during their home study over the lockdown period. The projects undertaken were as follows:
Year 7 - A view out of a window
Year 7 pupils were asked to draw the view out of a window and the following week extended the work further by drawing the view inside the room.
Year 7 - Martin Parr response
Pupils were asked to create a mini photography project based around the EVENTS that have recently happened and are still having an impact on our daily life and routines during COVID pandemic. They looked at the work of the artist Martin Parr who records /photographs everyday events that happen in all our lives.
Martin Parr Response Evaluation
These are my photographs taken during Lockdown – they show what is happening in the world and what I did during lockdown.
I personally found the experience of Lockdown fun because I learnt more things about myself and learned more hobbies.
My work relates to Martin Parr as I have shown what is happening in my life.
I think the most successful photograph is the one where I made my earrings.
I have selected this piece because it was colourful.
Using the art form of photography allowed me to show how creative I am and show different elements of colours.
