Art lesson - Painting/Drawing of Merlion and Singapore Symbols

Posted by Picasa This was a lesson that worried me, because 1G was going to try out painting!
Painting can be a very messy job for primary 1 kids. So in the first lesson, we mainly concentrated on tracing out the Merlion onto the cloth, and drawing symbols of Singapore with pencil.
We then painted the Merlion the following day. It was a messy work, but I guess the kids have to learn how to handle it themselves. We created some mess in the toilet, and paint were on the floor. Thank you Caleb, Gerald, Shanton, Joan, Amelia who helped to wipe up the paint on the floor with newspaper. Thank you Shu Hui, Maizatul who helped to peg all the bandana up to dry. Thank you Adam, Lavin and Hakeem, who helped to ensure that everyone throws the newspaper into the trashbag.
On Thursday, 7 aug, we finally completed and fine-tune our bandana with markers. I didn't collect the Bandana as we need to wear the bandana the next day. However, I took a photo of everyone's bandana and Eusuff and Amelia volunteered to film a video of introducing their banada.
