Process Walter Hall.

Working on a range of process based workshops with early years to encourage writing/mark making and imagination. Projects included 'A magic box' which involved me hiding in a box and posting letters, pens, writing materials out with instructions, playing music in side-the children really believed it was magic! Making giant writing instruments, treasure hunts, totum pole making and lots more.

Craft workshops.




Recycled outdoor workshops.


Here is a selection of outdoor projects I have been involved in to develop children's imaginations and encourage exploration in the outdoors. I have worked on a range of projects using recycled materials to creating temporary art to help develop reading writing and storytelling.






Outdoor learning projects.

Working to create an innovative outdoor learning area to encourage reading and writing. Designing and exploring ideas with the children through a range of experimental sessions which helped to design a successful permanent outdoor learning. These projects were more about process than finished pieces.

Jazz!

Work with Hagley High School, to create some Art inspired by a piece of famous jazz music. We took inspiration from Kandinsky and Claes Oldenburg. I worked with year 6 using modrock and recycled fabrics to produce these giant instruments.
