Stories in Art: Ks1

Session Description

We will look at 3 different artworks together.

We’ll think about how artists tell stories using pictures instead of words, and use the paintings to inspire our own creative writing.

Format of the session

Each museum-led session is scheduled for two hours. The class will be taught by a museum educator for an hour in the galleries and then can do an hour self-led in the museum. We will provide printable resources you can use for this.

If you are bringing two classes, one class will have the session for 2 hours and the other will do a self-led session in another part of the museum for 90 minutes, then breaking for lunch, before swapping over.
