Art Class: What's this tool?

Hi! I was cleaning out my sewing box when I found this tool. I seldom use them but they can be very useful for beginners. Let's watch to find out!

Housekeeping: Covering up Noticeboards

Last year, I was a recorder at a school for PSLE marking exercise. The fabrics covering the noticeboards in the classrooms caught my attention. The hooks and eyelets on the fabric seem like a good idea. In case you were wondering about these, teachers have to remove any posters or students' works prior to the examinations. You can imagine the time taken to put these up and bring them down considering the number of examinations we have. Perhaps these plain-coloured fabrics can double up as a table cloth for prize-giving day.😉 

Art Class: Puppets Making

These DIY puppets look too cute! If you have missed this lesson, click here. I provided my students with some art materials before the circuit breaker and these are what they have come up with. We did an online gallery view by looking at everyone's puppets on SLS. Some households lack strong adhesives to fix the materials so I applied some white glue before collecting them in a box. I see a lot creative ideas using common household items, it was a pleasure looking at their works. 

Artventure: Campus Party

Some time ago, I attended the Campus Party Singapore at EXPO. You can think of it like a Teachers' Conference except that it runs 24/7 for 3 days and they offer tents for sleepovers. For more information, you can view it here. I attended to hear the inspirational speakers and just be curious about the things I see. It could be a weekday when I visited so the event was quite underwhelming but at least there was some relevance in the presentations. What were some interesting places that you've visited last year?
