Usher in the new season with some fresh spring veg with this lesson plan that focuses on the work of Arcimboldo but with a technological twist. As well as combining art and ICT, the activity also creates an opportunity to talk with children about their knowledge of food.
Over the course of the lesson, children are encouraged to use digital cameras and ClipArt – dragging and dropping, resizing and rotating images, but computing is not a replacement for handling the food.
Children will be able to capture images using a digital camera, name fruit and vegetables, describe portraits by the artist Arcimbolo and create a self-portrait collage on a computer.
