Tuesday 23rd June

Good morning everyone!

I hope you are all well and enjoyed making a start on this week's suggested home learning.  Did you find out anything new about the Amazon Rainforest?


The rainforest jungle served as inspiration for a famous French artist, Henri Rousseau.  Although he never actually visited the rainforest in person, he visited the botanical gardens in Paris and used the plants he saw there in his very vibrant paintings.  He also included a huge variety of colourful and exotic animals and birds in his work.

I've put a Powerpoint presentation all about Rousseau in this week's folder of suggested activities - perhaps you could have a go at creating your own artwork in the same style?

Have fun today, and enjoy the sunshine as much as you can!

Best wishes

Mrs Vaqueiro
