Maybe they could sketch some feathers.
Children to sketch the bird of their choice in pencil, linking to the video used previously to create tone and detail.
Children to revise sketch from previous day and try again- starting to experiment using colour pencils. Show children how to colour properly with pencils. (colour in the same direction, create layers adding pressure as you go to create tone etc).
