Art Class: Let's Make Rainbow Book

Hi Teachers! I took the first lesson of this term to make something fun with the students. Once the basic steps are acquired, there are many variations that can be created! You can even add glitter or coloured beads on the cover. Only simple materials are needed. Give it a try!

Art Class: Making a Book

Hi teachers, building on our previous lesson, my students will be making a DIY book this week. The characters in their stories will be based on the puppets that they have made. For their online learning, they'll also be required to summarise their story in one sentence. I look forward to reading their stories!

Art Class: Early Finisher Activities

It is common for children to complete their art tasks at a different pace. Therefore, to accommodate the transition period to the next lesson unit, I have planned for early finisher activities. It's important that the activities are low mess and can be put away quickly because I wouldn't want it to supercede the actual art lesson conceptually and it should be stimulating. A bookshelf with art-related readings is available for the children freely whenever they have completed their art task. I'm also toying with the idea of a lightbox with solid shapes, yarn bombing, observational drawing and playing with magnets.

Making paint tubes with toilet paper roll

These fake paint tubes are wrapped with casting plaster and painted with real paint :D

Found this beauty in my neighbourhood for yarn bombing

Art Class: Reference Books.

Below are some books that were bought as teachers' resources (you don't have to be teaching Art to be reading those). I have yet to read them from cover to cover but I think it's useful to tab some chapters for future reference. Another great resource for borrowing books is from the MOE library read@academy. Just select the books that you want to borrow online and they would deliver them to your school on scheduled days. How convenient!
