Ted's first adventure

Ted went to the beach this weekend.
Ted wore a helmet when he went cycling.

Jackson Pollock

Jackson Pollock 1912-1945, was an influential American painter and a major figure in the abstract expressionist movement. 

Reception Bears explored some of Jackson Pollock's techniques.
They used words such as: drip, pour, splash, action painting, squeeze....
as well as revising the names of colours.

Jackson Pollock considered the whole canvas important.
The children filled the whole screen with different colours at:
