This week was started drawing a small jug with a dried flower inside... I can see that Yuval is looking at the still life so much more closely now while she draws!! After the first drawing..we looked at it together and talked about certain points - how the handle was unusally low on the jug and she had drawn it at the top and how because the jug is round, the bottam of it doesnt go straight across...and then i asked her to draw it again!! I really love this part of the lesson - as we do it every week, i can see the changes - in Yuval and her drawings.
This time Yuval drew the handle in the right place and drew a curve at the bottam of the jug.
We missed last weeks lesson, so today was a double. As its the first night of Chanukah tomorrow and wanting to carry on the subject of shadow from last time..i came up with the idea of a 'shadow box' with a menorah. I took a box i had kept from one of my swaps (; and asked Yuval to draw a menorah on the side. I then cut it up for her (safety reasons) and she then covered it in siver foil.
She added yellow and orange paper at the top for the flames and we covered the sides of the box in blue paper.
Yuval also made a card for her family using potato stamps which we touched on very quickly! We will continue with printing.
It was a very enjoyable lesson!!10 Comments:
