As part of our art unit - The Formal Elements of Art, this week we focused on Flip Art. The children first created a 20cm x 20cm grid split into 4 10x10cm squares. Next they selected a an image of a simple insect or flower and then selected a part of it to trace. Once they had traced it into a 10cm x10cm square they then ‘ flipped it’ and applied pressure to print the image on the first square. This was then repeated 4 times to create the end piece. As you can see from the images they were super impressive!
