Guest Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Our children love to look in a mirror and draw a self portrait, I have also extended this and sat 2 children face to face to draw each other, they always draw a smiley face Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alisonjayne Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 We did the same used mirrors and did self portraits they were brilliant, we went on later in the topic to look at our bones and the children painted skeletons with white paint on black paper we used the book Funny bones as inspiration as well as looking at non fiction books and model skeletons.

Guest Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 We used the Funnybones book as well and then used art straws on black paper to do our skeleton pictures. Most of the skeletons looked rather odd, but it was all their own work! We used different collages materials and paper plates to make faces. If you have a digital camera it's quite nice to take their photo, but it in half down the centre and let them draw the other half. You could also put a mirror down centre of their photo and see if it looks like them - repeat for the other side. Harricroft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inge Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 we looked at the following aspects of ourselves and developed activites to go with them appropriate to the children height chart, weights compare sizes, body pictures, likes and dislikes, favourite foods, tv programmes, colours toys stories etc. sort ourselves into sets-hair colour, eye colour shoes etc. what frightens us, what makes us feel safe how do we keep ourselves safe - stranger danger how are we feeling Can you climb, jump hop etc an chart using pictures Do we have brothers or sisters. how do I come to group/school play shadow games outside try to stand on each others shadows, are they long, how can you make them short. onlyif the sun shines ask for baby pictures, do they recognise eachother - do they recognise you- Inge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
