Exploring the natural and recycled materials with a language of music, movement, drama and visual arts by JingYong Tee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo en-us 2023-09-18 09:32:04 UTC 2023-09-18 16:33:42 UTC hello@padlet.com Artwork 1 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708488065 In my artefact, I'll be examining the idea of ecology by combining recycled paper and plastic bottles to build an octopus as the major structural component. I will split the plastic bottle in half and use the bottom part to depict the octopus in my artwork. I take some recycled paper since it's creative and use glue to attach it to things. I'm using the physical aspect of it in this situation then divide a sheet of paper into as many lines as there are feet. Google's eyes are all that are left after the last phase of placing. I created this piece of art back then. The image appears to show my friend assisting me in attaching the stick. As children are attracted to colourful materials and playing with sea creatures, i believe that children would be enjoying this activity a lot.]]> 2023-09-18 09:33:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708488065 Discussion for A1 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708488501 Children may have fun creating an octopus out of plastic bottles to encourage learning through play. Since everything in daily life is accessible, children may utilise all of the tools at their disposal to create their artwork.
Children's creativity and comprehension of environmental protection are both boosted by this method, which encourages their awareness of environmental preservation in daily life. (Howley-Rouse, A. ,2020)

These numerous components frequently appear in a child's life. I will organize children by collecting rubbish from daily life, allowing them to actively engage in the creative process, and accumulating waste items. In that way, teachers may inspire students' creativity. I will also remind children that by helping to create trash, they can alter the environment into one that is more lovely, meaningful, and supportive of their development as learners.]]> 2023-09-18 09:45:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708504291 Artwork 2 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708505622 I used recyclable bottle tops to make this artistic creation. My inspiration comes from Eric Carle's 1969 picture book The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The caterpillar, a highly hungry insect, is a favourite among children. So I used a variety of multicoloured bottle tops and created a vibrant caterpillar sculpture. To finish the coloured caterpillar, add the tentacles in pencil. Because it is safe and easy to use, I believe this activity is ideal for usage in children's regular school settings.]]> 2023-09-18 09:46:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708505622 Discussion for A2 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708509278 The use of waste materials in the gathering and use of waste things fosters children's expressiveness and inventiveness. The use of waste materials in the gathering and use of waste things fosters children's expressiveness and inventiveness. (Lorina, 2023) According to Piaget's interaction theory, toddlers learn by staying in constant contact with their surroundings. (Kendra Cherry, M. ,2006) Because of this, while using waste materials to produce creative work may be wasteful, it also has the ability to completely awaken children's subjective consciousness and encourage their individuality and creativity.]]> 2023-09-18 09:50:08 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708509278 Implication for practice jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708511782 Contact with their environment is crucial for children's development, realisation of their inherent potential, and understanding of the importance of this interaction. Through using the recycled materials, teachers may create unique instructional resources. Some younger children will find it difficult to execute this, therefore teachers may assign children the task of repurposing waste materials, such as milk cartons and waste foam, by cutting, sewing, pasting, and painting them in order to pique their creativity. When teachers are there to help and support the children, it substantially motivates them to learn and develop new ideas. By reusing the waste materials, children might get motivated in this manner.]]> 2023-09-18 09:52:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708511782 Artwork 3 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708519726 It just took a few minutes to make this item after printing a mickey mouse design on A4 paper, cutting it out, and preparing an empty body. Then, using your preferred colour of paper, cut it into a random pattern similar to the one seen in the figure. The most inventiveness is needed at this point. The next step is to use glue to assemble. To finish the project, place the white Mickey Mouse Pattern Paper sheet on top of the coloured cut item. Such a lovely blend of colours in a work of art!
The way I propose to teach children about various colour combinations is through colour pairings and an assembly. Children may select other the cartoon design or any other creatures or animals such as dinosaurs for themselves as they want for this work of art. ]]> 2023-09-18 09:57:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708519726 Discussion for AT3 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708533295 Children are born with the ability to perceive colour, children are sensitive to colours as in their early stage children are actually a visualize learner. In order to support child learners' healthy growth, colour education are extremely important. Through their own independent thinking and creative expression, children should be able to comprehend colour due to this educative tool. Children's senses are awakened and their minds, subjective consciousness, and creativity are developed through the colour splicing exercise.]]> 2023-09-18 10:09:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708533295 Implication for practice jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708535312 In the early childhood settings, teachers must provide color-playing activities that are simple to use and play with, making sure that it is engaging to children, and encourage involvement. This provides children a fun experience and helps them learn to appreciate beauty while also assisting in the development of their ability to differentiate the difference of the colour. At the same time, it promotes children's intellectual development.]]> 2023-09-18 10:11:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708535312 Artwork 4 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708545680 For my artwork, I didn't prepare any brushes or other typical painting equipment ready. I created this work of art only with the natural materials that can be easily found such leaves and tree branches in my yard. I'm doing this to give the impression that my work is more genuine. The only other paintings I produced were a handful that were red, green, and yellow. I just prepared three colours since they are a good representation of my feelings, ideals, and ideas. Whatever the case, I wanted to combine the colours to see if I could expose something fresh on the artwork, such as mixing some of the colours to create the secondary colour, by fusing the shades of green, red, and yellow.  ]]> 2023-09-18 10:20:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708545680 Discussion for AT4 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708550233 For this piece of artwork, children may make and paint their own forest, which can be any size or shape, using the straightforward materials. As a result, children will be allowed to use their creativity to freely create their own piece of artwork. They are allowed to utilise the tree branches and leaves to make their own works of art using their own hands or any other technique they want. However, children may experiment with colour mixing and discover that red and yellow may combine to create orange. Their interest in the experiment will gradually spark, and as their curiosity rises, they will seek out further information. Since children are inherently interested and eager to learn more about the world, they should be allowed to create their own art. ]]> 2023-09-18 10:24:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708550233 Implication for practice jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708597670 In the early childhood settings, educators should support children's creative expression so they may use their imaginations and minds to the fullest. In order to gradually add new colours to their artwork, such as secondary colours, teachers might also let students choose any colour for their artwork. In that case, children's interest will be piped up and boost up their learning interest through colours. Teachers can also engage students in a range of colour experiments to demonstrate the wonder of colour and pique their enthusiasm.  ]]> 2023-09-18 11:04:01 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708597670 Artwork 5 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708604911 By concentrating on paint as the main material, I will be investigating the concept of assembly in this product. In my artwork, I'll paint a yellow version of my hand that will serve as the chicken's primary body. Then, with some simple but creative sketching, the other elements may be finished. It must truly fascinate them and excite them to try it. I decided to tackle it by myself as a result, I enjoy getting paint all over my hands and getting to feel them on my hand. Despite of that i am curious to see how children's ideas and imagination can create a piece of art for themselves as it doesn't have to be chicken, it can be any other animals as well.]]> 2023-09-18 11:09:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708604911 Discussion for AT5 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708607197 Playing with colour with children is a crucial component in the early stage of education. This promotes children's emotional stimulation and enthusiasm in artistic endeavours. Additionally, it supports the growth of children' observational, imaginative, and creative skills. Additionally, it can enhance children's colour perception and support the coordinated growth of their hands, eyes, and brains.]]> 2023-09-18 11:11:20 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708607197 Implication for practice jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708610530 By implementing this technique, teachers should encourage children to use colour in creative ways in the future. During the early years of development, it is essential to comprehend that colour is a vital learning tool that children will use throughout their lives. With the use of crayons, children may draw colour bars, circles, and other forms on a large piece of paper using this function, and then they can dip their hands into colour printing to develop their interest in colour.]]> 2023-09-18 11:13:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708610530 Artwork 6 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708621280  I'll be adding recycled CDs with a bell and a rope as ornaments to my artwork. Making the CD as a decoration on outdoor to piped children's interest the things that they can observed through watching the lights reflections.
Hanging the CD outdoor and let the sun light and wind do the job and children will get to see the CD's backside reflection, which I felt was a great approach to persuade children to consider how essential it is to save the environment by recycling worn products and reusing damaged ones, served as the idea for this notion. I like how it looks in the sunshine in the natural surroundings. The reflections under the sunlight's showed the rainbow colour. Due to its sparkle, the sun reflections and uniqueness, children will be happy to display it in front of the window in their rooms.]]> 2023-09-18 11:21:38 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708621280 Discussion for AT6 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708623355 The purpose that i have created this piece of artwork is because i wanted to teach children about the reflections of lights. The use of learning activities that make use of light help children develop in a variety of ways, including science, and it is crucial that this activity be used in early life. Light moves from the eye to the object and makes vision possible, the reflection from the CD allows children to discover the beauty and the science behind the activity. Lights are serves an important role towards the children as lights can also educate children about divers culture. For instance, the celebration of Diwali the lights, it is an Indian culture to celebrate the is a celebration of lights that honours the victory of good over evil It is crucial to let children getting a good understanding of light in their early years. Loris Malaguzzi created the Reggio Emilia Method, a way of approaching educational activities that makes use of light.

One of the best way to let children to learn about it is through making art with children in that way we can get them enthusiastic about learning. Children can be learning different knowledge through one activity and educator can start from that topic to continue teaching children the knowledge about lights. To practice, i would prepare some CD's for children to explore under the sun light. Through playing with the CD's under the sun light, i will continue extend the learning through explaining the appearance of the rainbow as it has the same theory behind. ]]> 2023-09-18 11:25:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708626415 Artwork 7 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708843219 In regard to the idea of assembly, I'll be focusing on the paint that was employed as the item's primary component.
To create a unique "colour monster" painting, I'll use inexpensive materials including a salad spinner, washable paint, glue, googly eyes, and paper plates.
It is a technique for children friendly artwork. Simply insert your preferred-colored paper plate, then turn on the salad spinner. Then, you can notice a gorgeous colour scheme and design on the plate.
Every time you remove the lid, think about looking at the many colours blendings and combinations. Each time you open it, you'll look forwards to seeing how distinct and distinctive it seems. It is really enjoyable while you see the way paint going aside unconditionally. ]]> 2023-09-18 13:37:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708843219 Discussion for AT7 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708846246 The artwork depicting a spinning colour monster in artefact 1 successfully communicates the pairing of colours, which is advantageous for children's creativity and multi-color learning. Although this practise won't likely get your hands dirty, it is also a lot of fun. Everything you need to manufacture may easily be found in your home. For instance, children can research the principles of the primary colours red, yellow, and blue while mixing them together what colour will comes out.  Children's curiosity will be piqued by this magical colour transformation, which will also help them better understand colour and boost brain growth via painting and colour mixing.]]> 2023-09-18 13:39:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708846246 Implication for practice jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708848085 Educators can engage children in learning activities in the classroom to encourage them to actively use colour to represent a happy and pleasurable atmosphere. For them to engage with their imagination and creativity in a fun way, educators should encourage children to express colour using their own thoughts about colour throughout instructional activities. Children can finally grasp the fundamentals of colour combination and use colour to communicate ideas in practising exercises. Educators can also encourage children to distinguish colours by incorporating fun educational activities. To generate the most appealing colours, for instance, educators may bring a variety of colours into the classroom and let children mix their personal preferences using the salad spinner. Children begin by combining the recognised colours in an effort to create the most unique colour monster they can think of. Throughout this instructional procedure, everyone in the class has the opportunity to experience colour bliss, examine and practise colour combinations, and work to construct their own, amazing colour monster. The preparation and carrying out of the activity effectively demonstrated children's knowledge of and talent for using the rules of colour aesthetics.]]> 2023-09-18 13:40:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708848085 Artwork 8 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708865785 I made a pencil holder for this piece of art using toilet paper rolls, green paper, and a tiny bit of cardboard. I need to start by wrapping three toilet paper rolls in green paper. After that, cut out some cloud shapes from the cardstock to use as the structure for the pencil holder. I used some green paper that i have prepared to construct a dinosaur's head, feet, and tail. The green paper should be cut into the shape of a dinosaur head and tail before being attached to the front and back of the pencil holder. Use coloured textures and create a dinosaur face at the front, a dinosaur tail in the back, and dinosaur feet all over the pencil holder to make it more appealing to children's who adore dinosaurs.  ]]> 2023-09-18 13:48:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708865785 Discussion for AT8 jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708871395 While I was doing my placement at a childcare facility, I noticed that children frequently forget to pack up their things after they are finished. That's when I came up with the idea for this concept. By placing and packing the colour pencils after used inside a creative pencil holder, you may teach children about resourcefulness, bring their attention to it, and motivate them to constantly carry their belongings. Children discover where things belong, which educates them where to go for resources they might need in the future. Additionally, pack away time fosters the children's development of cognitive skills including classification, reading, and numeracy. ]]> 2023-09-18 13:51:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708871395 Implication of practice jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708875583 Making engaging artwork can draw children' attention and inspire them to learn. By creating the pencil holder, we as educators can set an example for the children in terms of how to take care of their school supplies or belongings. In spite of this, recycling with children is an essential activity to engage in both at home and at childcare, so we need to encourage children to learn about sustainability in the future. It educates children how to save resources and lessen our influence on the environment. Utilising what we now have leaves more resources available for a future that is more sustainable. In the future, we must encourage children to learn about sustainability. ]]> 2023-09-18 13:54:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708875583 Introduction and discussion : Paint: Assemblage jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708902662 Painting may help children improve their practical abilities and stimulate their senses, which makes it a valuable teaching tool in early childhood education settings. Because a variety of colours may encourage creativity and imagination in children when they paint. As we all know, a child's are a visual learners, initial experience with the world and their first tool for effectively representing what they see and feel is colour.
Children must employ multiple methods while utilising these numerous materials since they will come into contact with a variety of different pens and sheets with their own hands while they are painting. Children can use it as a tool-use exercise to strengthen their fine motor skills, gripping and others. Once more, teaching children to sketch encourages the development of their creativity. Because drawing is a rather unrestricted activity, children are provided with the option to experiment and make their own creations. According to the reading from the Assemble: Paint section (PaciniKetchabaw et al., 2016), paint has evolved from a method to support children's sensory development to a tool for thinking. Children's lack of understanding about the world may be well shown in paintings, which also act as a child's emotional bridge to the outside world. Children use their artistic abilities to communicate their viewpoint. New brains can be purified via painting. Educators can influence the way their children think through a variety of methods of guidance. Children's perspectives of the world are often substantially broadened when they are doing painting. Since the children are still young, they lack a qualitative sense of the outside world and a cognitive understanding of how to evaluate their own artwork. Children may participate in this process with complete confidence and excitement, allowing them to demonstrate their skills and greatly enhance their ability for creativity.]]> 2023-09-18 14:06:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708902662 Reference list jingyongtee https://padlet.com/jingyongtee/acbc3l9hkq5cebyo/wish/2708926228 Children’s learning styles (2020) AbilityPath.
