My beautiful kindergarteners have now had 100 days of school becoming 100 days smarter, kinder, stronger and more amazing! We celebrated with a range of activities including making these 100 year old grannies/grandpas portraits.
Lesson Materials (per student):
1 sheet A4 black card
1 skin-coloured oval for the face, cut from A4 paper (I had a range of skin colours on offer)
1 coloured oval for the background behind the face, cut from A4 paper
1 semi circle of coloured papers (plain and patterned- I used old wrapping paper, origami paper and computer paper), for the shirt
1 pre-cut out bow tie cut from coloured/patterned papers OR a piece of white paper doily for a lace collar
glu-stick
PVA glue (only needed for pearls or heavier buttons)
approx. 2 cotton balls for the grandpas and 5-6 cotton balls for the grannies
black texta
red texta
buttons, fake pearls etc to decorate
Lesson Steps:
1. Stick the coloured/patterned semi-circle shirt onto the coloured oval background.
2. If you are making a granny, stick the lace doily down next, then the skin-coloured face oval over the top of it. If you are making a grandpa, stick the face down next and then the bow tie on top (between the chin and shirt).
3. Stick on buttons, earrings etc.
4. Stick on cotton wool- one just above where ears would go for the grandpas, and spread across the top of the head for the grannies- unravelling the cotton balls out a little to be less ball-like.
5. Draw on eyes, nose and mouth using textas. (I drew lots of options of types of facial features they might like to choose from).
6. When dry, stick onto the back card.
