Yinka Shonibare CBE Biography and Artworks

Ask your students to bring something in from home that connects to their lives outside of school. Set up a display area in your classroom for the students to show their work.

Repeat

Each morning, invite students to share their objects and stories, in new pairs. Encourage them to discuss about what is important to them in their homes and outside of school and celebrate it together.

Adapt

Play a quick drawing game to celebrate commonalities and differences within the class: What do you love to eat? Where’s your favourite place? The class can then guess what the drawing depicts.

Extend

Ask students to wrap their objects carefully in brown paper, then draw a story or memory onto every surface. Once done, unwrap the object-drawing and celebrate the artwork created.

If you try out these activities or come up with other ideas, please do share your pictures with us and other schools on Twitter; we'd love to see what you're up to!
