We started our art club with a project that was creative, simple and explored the children’s surroundings.
Inspired by textures and patterns they found around the workshop space, the children drew designs and made crayon rubbings onto circular templates.
Using 20 circles, they stuck the pieces together to form a globe that could be hung as a decoration.
We first made small globes working in pairs, using crayons and pencils. Then we worked as a group to decorate large globes using paint and coloured tissue paper.
The project was a great way to get to know the kids, to see how they work and what they enjoy. We found out that they love glue, scissors and painting (not always on paper!!)
