Have you ever really looked at yourself in the mirror? Have you ever examined your face and your features?
Year 2 have been having a closer look at their facial features. We started by taking photos of ourselves and our friends using the iPads and improving them by using a range of editing techniques.
After that we used modelling clay to carefully sculpt a 3D self-portrait using a variety of different tools and skills.
During our activities we realised that our features are similar but different.
We are all unique!
Year 2 have been getting their hands messy with glue and paint!
After seeking inspiration from the outdoors, Year 2W used this to generate a print of a leaf. First they had to draw a leaf before sticking string along the lines to make a template. The children had glue all over their hands!
Once dried, the children continued to get their hands messy by using the template to make a series of prints. We weren't sure if there was more paint on the template or on the hands of the children. Don't worry, the children quickly learnt how to tidy up after themselves!
What do you think of our prints?
Je, umewahi kujitazama katika kioo? Je, umewahi kuchunguza uso wako na sura yako? Mwaka huu, tumeangalia kwa karibu zaidi sifa za uso wao. "Tulianza kwa kupiga picha zetu na za marafiki zetu kwa kutumia iPads na kuiboresha kwa kutumia mbinu mbalimbali za uhariri.""" Baada ya hapo, tulitumia udongo wa kuiga kwa uangalifu kutengeneza picha ya 3D ya mtu mwenyewe kwa kutumia vifaa na ujuzi mbalimbali. Wakati wa shughuli zetu tuligundua kwamba sifa zetu ni sawa lakini tofauti. Sote ni wa pekee! Mwaka wa pili wamekuwa kupata mikono yao messy na gundi na rangi! Baada ya kutafuta msukumo kutoka nje, Mwaka 2W alitumia hii kutengeneza uchapishaji wa jani. Kwanza walipaswa kuchora jani kabla ya kushikilia kamba kando ya mistari ili kutengeneza kiolezo. Watoto walikuwa na gundi mikononi mwao! Baada ya kukauka, watoto waliendelea kuchafua mikono yao kwa kutumia kiolezo hicho ili kufanya mfululizo wa michoro. Hatukujua kama kulikuwa na rangi zaidi kwenye kiolezo au kwenye mikono ya watoto. Usiwe na wasiwasi, watoto walijifunza upesi jinsi ya kusafisha baada yao wenyewe! Una maoni gani kuhusu alama zetu za miguu?
