Today we were in the Year 5 class still observing but today the children were doing art. They were making rivers in stages. A lot of the children drew a river then cut out the exact shape out of blue paper. After going round talking to some of the children i was trying to get them to do more collage and explaining its like a mosaic where you have little bits of colour and stick them down because the children knew what mosaics where. Some children picked it up but others needed more talking to untill they understood it.
The one this that made my day was one child, he asked me how to make a flower so i showed him and soon after he was then teaching other pupils in his class how to make them. It showed that i did a good job and that he understood it so much he felt that he could pass the information on. Someone later on tweeked the technique to make some trees which was amazing, it just shows how much creativity children have if you show them one technique.
Here are the images from the day:
