Lots of fun and learning! ### Brush strokes lesson 1 2026 [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/2FF47933-8827-49B3-931D-9BFDF2786AEE.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/2FF47933-8827-49B3-931D-9BFDF2786AEE.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/81A22FD7-63F5-4F18-8839-295CC9C1B039.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/81A22FD7-63F5-4F18-8839-295CC9C1B039.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/38B8F604-9FE1-4BEE-AFEA-6F668F089BDB.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/38B8F604-9FE1-4BEE-AFEA-6F668F089BDB.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/ED4E13CB-B134-4A61-B833-8DFAAF3EB422.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/ED4E13CB-B134-4A61-B833-8DFAAF3EB422.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/00927C4A-ECDD-4E6E-8FE7-EAD5D5CA7C81.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/00927C4A-ECDD-4E6E-8FE7-EAD5D5CA7C81.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/00D41B60-9B6A-40FA-AE0E-FC738FD4CE6A.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/00D41B60-9B6A-40FA-AE0E-FC738FD4CE6A.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/D6646569-7304-495D-957F-D13AD20A26BE.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/D6646569-7304-495D-957F-D13AD20A26BE.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/1B73C030-4F34-41F9-8B12-0EA070548171.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/1B73C030-4F34-41F9-8B12-0EA070548171.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/529E34B5-3CCB-4E6B-BE3C-5F08FE758256.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/529E34B5-3CCB-4E6B-BE3C-5F08FE758256.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/29E7E836-2E34-46DC-882A-F2449B78A01E.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/29E7E836-2E34-46DC-882A-F2449B78A01E.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/91821612-9724-4143-8495-9E93BCA12AE1.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/91821612-9724-4143-8495-9E93BCA12AE1.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/A7BAB913-51DE-4285-8C84-50D97FFCE085.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/A7BAB913-51DE-4285-8C84-50D97FFCE085.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/3BEEA14C-AD1E-487A-AC7C-1FB88024A081.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/3BEEA14C-AD1E-487A-AC7C-1FB88024A081.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/79163717-B5CD-4ADE-9688-55368FE47E0D.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/79163717-B5CD-4ADE-9688-55368FE47E0D.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/CE712920-8B3C-4E3D-8FA0-4F98A10C4B5F.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/CE712920-8B3C-4E3D-8FA0-4F98A10C4B5F.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/34B0EC4B-3BAC-4319-87C8-A28236215128.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/howard-primary-school/images/gallery/brush-strokes-lesson-1-2026/34B0EC4B-3BAC-4319-87C8-A28236215128.jpeg) [ Is it living, not living or never been alive?](https://www.howard.staffs.sch.uk/blog/2026-04-15-16-17-is-it-living-not-living-or-never-been-alive) [Eggsperimenting!
