Paws, Claws and Whiskers

Project overview

Develop children’s knowledge of shape, colour, pattern and texture with Paws, Claws and Whiskers, our comprehensively resourced art and design project. The supporting high-quality teaching resources help Year 1 children observe, draw and recreate wild animals and pets, as they find out more about them.

It is built upon our four-stage primary focused pedagogyEngage, Develop, Innovate, Express – to get your children curious about the project ahead, develop and then use new skills and knowledge, before finally allowing them to express their thoughts, ideas and reflections on what they have learnt.
