Pinch Pots Inspired by Alice Ballard
Date: 8th Mar 2024 @ 12:03am
Last half term, the children explored a famous sculptor called Alice Ballard. We looked at how she is inspired by nature and her preference of blues and greens to decorate her work. Influenced by our English text, 'The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch', the children took to designing their own sea themed pinch pots. They first rehearsed with sculpture using playdough, creating waves with the clay tools. They then modelled a pot with clay and decorated with various clay tools. The final step was to paint. We hope you love your little trinket dishes as much as the children did. Well done Year 1!
