Farewell!

And this conclude my last week at my current school. Saying goodbye to my colleagues and friends as I handover my work. I want to give a shoutout to all teachers, staff, students and parents for walking this journey with me. I'm filled with gratitude to be able to contribute and share my work.

Art Class: Virtual Art Exhibition (SYF 2021)

 

Hi Teachers! I've explored some platforms to create virtual art exhibition. It was really hard to navigate initially but I finally decided on Artsteps. It's a free app. Depending the interface, you can use the app on the iPad to view art exhibition but not to create one. I used my laptop and do note that it uses more memory than usual so if it runs slower on the laptop, the RAM on the laptop could be insufficient. My screen recording of students' work is above. The opening event is here and selected artworks for special mention is here. 

Art Class: Art & Music Fiesta

In September, our school held the annual Sports Carnival and Art and Music Fiesta. Timetable was suspended and the students were scheduled for the activities. These activities were planned such that they were not duplicates in the art curriculum so excuse can be given for more noise, action and mess! The older kids used newsprint to create a costume so that they could have a parade in class while the younger ones did outdoor fun like chalk drawing. Obviously we could make do with the non-explicit curriculum where drawing canvas can be larger than them. We always pray for good weather on this day😸. They also made musical instruments with materials found on the kitchen counter.
