Year 3 students turn nature into art! 🎨🌿

As part of the series of lessons under the topic "How the World Works", this week Year 3 students practiced observational drawing.

Ms. Nga, the class art teacher, prepared many natural models - flowers and leaves collected from the school garden. She carefully and thoughtfully arranged them from different angles to make it convenient for students to observe and draw.

Students were free to choose the models they liked best. Each student took time to look closely - from the overall shape to the smallest details - discovering interesting features that caught their attention. They spent nearly 90 minutes recreating the flowers and leaves through lines, shapes, shades, colors, and textures.

Observational drawing is not simply about making the drawing look as similar to the real object as possible. It is also a process where students express their own perspectives, emotions, and experiences. Through this activity, they explore the connection between art and science and learn to see the beauty in everyday life.

This practice also plays an important role in helping children develop fine motor skills, concentration, and self-confidence.

Year 3 students not only had a wonderful and engaging experience but also discovered the talents of their classmates and built stronger connections with one another. At the end of the lesson, everyone shared their feelings and chose their favorite artwork.
