The Bens have been busy learning how to become teachers this week. They have been involved in the process of creating an exciting art lesson to deliver to a clan across the school. \u00a0They had to come up with an idea of how to create a price of art using the theme of Calderwood. These pieces of art will be displayed around the school and used as part of a collaboration project with Edinburgh College.<\/p>\n
First, each family group thought about the themes that surround Calderwood, the main themes coming through included deers, trees, building, houses and families.
\nNext, they researched different forms of art with these themes in mind and decided on a product that they wanted to recreate. The groups presented their ideas to their own clan and then set about planning a lesson to resource and deliver.
\nThe products that were decided on were:-<\/p>\n
* Lollypop houses on a painted background<\/p>\n
*Hanging 3D mobile of toilet roll reindeers<\/p>\n
* Colour by number stags head
\n* Collaborative school badge hanging shield<\/p>\n
* Draw 3D houses<\/p>\n
* Trace and colour an image of a deer<\/p>\n
The groups had to be mindful of the age and stage of clan that they creating a lesson for so that the skills were age appropriate. They created a complete example to show on the day, created step by step instructions and some even created a PowerPoint to support their teaching.<\/p>\n
While delivering their lessons on Friday 25th December the children shone. They were confident with their delivery and supportive leaders, all pupils were engaged in their activities and everyone had fun. I am so proud of the children in the Bens and want to congratulate each and every one of them. Also, a mention for the those that helped create the lesson ideas but for one reason or other couldn\u2019t be there on the day to deliver it. Thank you \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n
Here are a few snaps of the lessons in action, I\u2019ll post the completed products once the \u2018teachers\u2019 have created their final displays.<\/p>\n
