Donald Trump Outside Art

Year 5 have been fascinated with the recent events in America. We watched the news yesterday morning following the American elections. As part of our ‘Great Leader’ topic, we have been outside and made our own Donald Trump. There was lots of discussion about whether he could be classed as a great leader! We started by mapping out the face with masking tape, following on from our portrait workshop last week. The children then gathered a variety of materials from the woods to make his face, using the guidelines to get the proportions right. The colours were chosen carefully, as well as looking at the texture to match the photograph of him. We all think it’s a pretty good likeness, what do you think?
