Session Outline •Children to collect leaves and look carefully at their features and structure. (You may use Outdoor Skills: The Structure of Leaves for help) Look carefully at their veins: Can they see where the water is transported throughout the leaf? Can they fold the leaves into half so that both sides are equal? If they fold the leaf along the midrib, are both sides symmetrical? Is the midrib a line of symmetry? Children to cut the leaves into halves along their midrib. Once cut, can they easily match the pairs together again? Children to place their ‘half leaves’ into a layered circle on their ‘peep hole template.’ Can they describe the patterns and positions for their leaves? Once happy with their design, an adult should cover with a piece of chiseal over the top. Turn the peep hole over, remove the ‘peep hole temlplate,' and cover that side with chiseal too, so that the peep hole is secure. Allow the children free exploration of their environment with their peep holes. Differentiation: HA - Spot patterns in the leaves including parallel and perpendicular veins. Can they describe the placement of leaves, e.g. quarter turn, half turn. Ensure all edges of their pattern have straight lines. LA- Help with cutting and placing the leaves. Extension: Spot patterns in their environment with their peep-holes. Session Objectives Children will study and recreate techniques used by Andy Goldsworthy to create their own art in the outdoors. Children can recognise halves. Resources Leaves, scissors, peep hole template (Scroll down), chiseal (sticky back plastic) cut to size. Resources Links Outdoor Skills: The Structure of Leaves.

Risk Assessments Generic Site RA Curriculum Links Art: (KS1) Use a range of materials creatively to design and make products; to develop a wide range of art and design techniques in using colour, pattern, texture, line, shape, form and space; know about great artists, craft makers and designers, and understand the historical and cultural development of their art forms. Science: (Y1) Identify and name a variety of common wild and garden plants, including deciduous and evergreen trees; Identify and describe the basic structure of a variety of common flowering plants, including trees. (Y2) Identify and name a variety of plants and animals in their habitats, including micro-habitats; Find out and describe how plants need water, light and a suitable temperature to grow and stay healthy. Numeracy: (Y1) Recognise, find and name a half as one of two equal parts of an object, shape or quantity; Describe position, direction and movement, including whole, half, quarter and three-quarter turns. (Y2) Order and arrange combinations of mathematical objects in patterns and sequence; Use mathematical vocabulary to describe position, direction and movement, including movement in a straight line and distinguishing between rotation as a turn and in terms of right angles for quarter, half and three-quarter turns (clockwise and anti-clockwise).

Instructions

1. Collect lots of leaves 2. Look carefully at their veins:

Can you see where the water is transported throughout the leaf?

3. Can you fold the leaves into half so that both sides are equal? If you fold the leaf along the midrib, are both sides symmetrical? Is the midrib a line of symmetry?

4. Cut them in half along their

midrib. 5. Place the leaves onto your peep

hole template, turning it as you work and being careful not to cover the middle hole.

6. Ask an adult to help you to cover your peep hole with sticky-back plastic.

7. Cut around your design to make a leaf-peep-hole!

hole?
