**Year 2 observational drawing of peacock feathers**

I just love these! Year 2 have been practising their observational skills this term by drawing peacock feathers. As a class, we explored the feel of the feathers and discussed the colours that can been seen within them. We looked at shapes and details and how to describe them using art media (oil pastel and 4B drawing pencils) and line.

The children drew up to four peacock feathers during the lesson; they will be used to decorate their **Indonesian Peacock Dance** headdresses before the end of term.
