Reception Self Portraits

In Reception, their topic is Me & My World, and they have been learning how to draw self portraits using oil pastels. They used mirrors to check what colour their hair and eyes and skin colour was, before selecting the correct pastel to draw that feature. They loved doing it and the pictures look fabulous!
