CHILDREN'S CREATION

I have spend two weeks in Methodeschool be Buurt in Gent on a class of 23 children with 4, 5 and 6 years old and two teachers. We propose them the activity that we have made in art class in order to create a comic. In this case, the procedure was the same as in Art lesson, but the final results were used in another way. We propose the children ones they have finished their drawings, we asked them to create a story discussing on their groups and tell the story to the rest of the children.

It was really nice to see the same activity in practice with children. I could also see how they could understand the steps and what they have to do.  We have give them the chance to draw with some materials teachers told us, they are not used to use it even if they have them in class (pastel chalks and crayons).

Material:

Pastel chalks and crayons

 Classroom toy




I could see how the experiment with the material:

 

Process:

This lesson has been wonderful experience to see how children could create their own stories based on their drawings and adding some words which they create personal/group stories. I think that has been an enjoyable time for them, with freedom and happiness. I could have the chance to enjoy and have good time with all of them! I really like it!
