This resource is a set of 5 Art lessons based around the theme of the sea, oceans and water for KS1. The key skills that are taught include creating different tones and shades with paint and pencil, using shapes, patterns and lines and experimenting with different materials. There are 3 different artists used as inspiration, all of whom have painted the sea or water using very different techniques. The children have the opportunity to work alone for 4 lessons and part of a collaborative group project for the final lesson. They have lots of opportunity to choose what materials they work with. The 15 page pdf lesson plans are very detailed and include a list of any resources you will need to get out of the cupboard. There are also details of curriculum links and examples of work from my classes. I have included the simple 7 slide PowerPoint I used for the series of lessons, which contains examples of the artists’ work around which the lessons are based. I hope you enjoy the lessons! They are great fun!

a pirate themed scavenger hunt

"This is the story of the fierce Captain Jones, And his pirate ship with the skull and cross bones. With a patch on one eye and a hook for a hand, He sailed the oceans looking for land. If you just spoke his name, people trembled with fear, They ran and they hid when he was near. His ship had huge sails (and being old, had no motor), It was dirty and smelly and he called it ‘The Floater’." Sure to be a modern classic; 'The Tea Swigging Pirate Jones' follows Captain Jones and his crew as they hunt for treasure in a rhyming adventure. In a journey which takes them through caves and caverns with dragons and magic, this is sure to be as popular with teachers as it is for children! A Powerpoint collection of activities relating to the text is also included.
