Your Question?
My focus child loves drawing. I've observed her draw a lot, and in my fine motor observation I've talked about her drawings and her visual perception skills like for example there is a pumpkin on the wall, she will look at the pumpkin and draw it based on what she can see even though it's right across the room. She described a lot of animals from an elephant to a flamigo (I was having trouble writing them down so I could remember) even described a lion "with claws and grrrrr," she made the face and claws which made me laugh.
What is your answer so far or What have you done so far as an attempt to solve this question?
Anyway.... I want to come up with a plan based on her drawings. I really want to do a drawing plan; but putting out pencils sounds so....easy? I have beautiful colourful boxes to put stuff in from officeworks which I used the last workplacement and I don't want to make the same mistake because my teacher told me to be a bit more creative, but she really likes drawing! what kind of theme could I do? Should I do maybe an office? (but she doesn't really write - just mainly draws) ....um I need help
Description and Message:
Any ideas would be helpful.
They don't have much paper for the children at the centre, and it's recycled paper which has already been filled up. So I thought I could implement lots of beautiful colourful paper and maybe cut them into different shapes just to have something different, and maybe add some stimulating pictures because she was looking at the wall for inspiration and coming up with what she knows from the community.
Is this okay or too simple?
Other than drawing I was also thinkig collage (I have to implement a physical and creative so either way) or clay, or using crayons and doing rubbings or monoprinting.
I'm not sure the best one to do.
