Year 2, both at home and at school, have been creating their own patterns.

Pupils have explored William Morris’ textile and wallpaper designs and used them as inspiration to design their own repeat patterns. Within the project so far, pupils have practised their observational skills to draw from found leaves and photographs of British wildlife. They have cut templates and used them to draw around when designing their own motif. Pupils have considered their colours very carefully, discussing primary, secondary, harmonious, and complementary colours. Pupils then repeated their motifs to make patterns.

We will be exploring relief printing next week and taking wallpaper orders from next month!
