In this one time class we will look at photos of the Aurora Borealis, and learn about why these amazing lights shine in the Northern skies. We will then, step by step create our very own Northern Lights scene using pastels or chalks. I will teach you how to blend, and use appropriate colors to really create a glowing night sky. We will then draw simple trees silhouetted against the night sky.There will be lots of opportunity for you to chat, share ideas and the final masterpiece you make (if you so wish).

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello there!
I am a qualified British teacher living in the U.K. I have taught the 3-11 year old children for over for over 15 years. At present I teach part-time at a local school Here I teach 4-8 year olds Math Mastery and phonics.
My other passion is to teach children about the natural world through drawing and craft.
I am a qualified outdoor educator (Forest School Level 3), and cannot wait to bring the outside into your home. By teaching about the natural world I hope to encourage your child to go out, explore and become passionate about the natural world. Through drawing, natural crafts and stories I would hope to build a connection between your child and the natural world, that will light a spark of love for the outdoors, and will last them a lifetime.
I also love to pass on knowledge about my culture, I am originally from Wales, have lived in Scotland and now live in England... so there will be lots to learn in my lessons about these three countries of the United Kingdom.
I would wish your child to be so inspired by my lessons that they would want to find out more independently about art, nature and different cultures.
I look forward to seeing you soon.Reviews
