A fantastic spoken lesson leading into art and (potentially) written reflection after! First part of the lesson is a partner-talk then whole class discussion on the year: what has been the highlights? What has stood out? Scribe it all down then start the slideshow. Using images from the past such as cave painting, the Bayeux tapestry and Japanese woodblock art, the class discuss great works of art and historical artifacts before looking at the artwork of Keith Haring. Using his trademark style, the children then make their own large Bayeux tapestry posters depicting their year.

Information on the Victorians and the school system to compare to today with a writing prompt at the end. Key vocabulary and writing exemplar included, with some evidence sheets to supplement.

Black history month. A whole- year group task for the day, culminating in a written reflection of Apartheid. Incredibly interesting day's work!
