It’s officially fireworks night on the 5th of November here in the UK and many of us would normally be taking children and grandchildren to watch the displays. Perhaps this year with covid there wont be many happening, however we thought it would be a fun way of celebrating fireworks night with this themes challenge.
In the UK we celebrate Bonfire night because of Guy Fawkes and the Gun Powder plot. However of course people all over the world have access to fireworks at various time of the year including Thanksgiving and New Years too.
So students can choose which ever theme to base their paintings and drawings on and be creative with their ideas! Tell us what fireworks mean to you and your family and the reasons why you celebrate!
For those who are new to our challenges, we post them every Friday, so that students have a chance to pick up their pencils, pens, brushes or tablets to create artwork in their downtime over the weekend.
The results are the posted here on our blog on the following Thursday.
We love it when students add text to go along side the artwork, we will always post it on the blog if included.
