 * **Name**: Ginny - Hiwinui School
 * Year**: Y6,7,8
 * Curriculum Area**: Sketching - Photo Symmetry
 * Purpose**: To get children to use their pencil effectively to enhance their picture.
 * Equipment**: Digital Camera, White Paper A4 and Pencils
 * Reflection**: This was a great way to use digital photos to enhance art work. Take a photo of each child in the class, a head and shoulders shot (children can practicing taking photos of each other). Print off and cut photo in half so that. Children then paste onto their white A4 paper and sketch the other side of their face. This is really great for teaching sketching techniques and learning about proportion, spacing and detail.

 * **Name**: Liz - Bunnythorpe
 * Year**: 0- 3
 * Curriculum Area**: Visual Arts
 * Purpose**: To add a photo of themselves onto a playground background that they have previously painted.
 * Equipment**: Digital camera - students working in pairs and take each others photo, painting of background done prior to photos.
 * Reflection**: The children loved the idea of pasting a photo of themselves onto a background that they had painted. They looked great and the parents loved the art too. You need to trust the children to take photos sensibly. Guidelines given: each photo must have all their body visible – no cut off heads or feet.
