To begin the lesson, pupils moved their bodies and danced to all four pieces of music. As a class, we discussed how the music made them feel and how their movements changed to reflect this. We then moved to a large square of paper and gave the children felt tip pens. Whist listening to the music a second time, they responded to it and allowed their arms to travel around the paper creating expressive lines. We swapped to chunky graphite sticks halfway through – perfect for angry squiggles! Each class created a large group artwork covered with sad, happy, angry and calm lines and images. The project allowed the children to express themselves freely on a large scale and helped develop their motor skills. Year R had great fun!
