Hook for Learning:
Teacher to deliberately
discriminate in favour of
children with blue eyes without
letting anyone know that they
are doing so, before getting
children to discuss how they
felt.

out the work of other artists and then to create
their own self-portrait using the media that they
have been looking at.
