Art Class: Water art

The P2 children ended the semester with water art! We did orizomegami and water marbling. I was really glad to discover that my DIY paint holder could hold water well for the entire class duration. It was the right size for the children to contain water and empty it on their own. The first time when I tried this, I had to prepare everything myself using 7 excessive large plastic containers and that process was deemed too ineffective. 

The first 2 photos below show orizomegami by adults and I omitted a step to facilitate the artmaking process in class. Before I conduct any lessons, I will run the entire process and anticipated any hiccups in my mind's eye. Even though the children will not have define patterns as I decided to simplify the artmaking, they were still very fascinated by the process.
