Creating a Collage

One day before the October break I brought in some of the wonderfully colourful, decorative gourds which were on sale in the supermarkets. They are definitely not good for eating, but they did provide inspiration for an art activity: creating group collages. First the children searched through magazines to find the colours they would need: oranges, reds, yellows and greens. Then they worked with Catrin in small groups to make big collage pictures using torn paper.




The original collages and photos of the gourds can be viewed in our classroom.
