P4 art

Over the past weeks we have studied our local community and learned about the different ways in which the surrounding land is used. We have learned that the land is used for recreation such as parks, football fields and the 5 sisters zoo, agriculture which we learned is farming and it is also used for Community Development, which is new houses, the new West Calder High School and the community garden. One very significant landscape we have in our local community

is The 5 Sisters Bings. We looked at how they were formed and we know that they are man made through the Shale industry. We went outside and photographed the hills. We then used those photographs to make our own sketches. We used pencils to create our own drawings.
