Artwork and signage design for the site could be incorporated
into the scheme of work.
Children were asked to; investigate both the history of decorating trees and the
best trees for decorating. They researched decorations that could be made, and
produced their own designs.
The project provided the opportunity to work
with Resident Artist to help children design and make a mural of Brickhouse
Haven to be used as a backdrop for the signage.
Curriculum activities included:
Look at history of decorating trees (4c, 5a, 5d)
Investigate best trees for decorating using first hand observations (1a - c)
Investigate the types of decorations that can be made (1a - c, 2a)
Design and make tree decorations (2b, 2c, 3a - b, 4a, 4b)
