To end with flourish the topic about China with the students of 6th Year at Cherry Garden Primary School we have made a great Chinese dragon using paper plates. Each one has painted her paper plate as a color wheel, using only the primary colours and obtaining secondary and tertiary colours.
In another paper plate each one has painted her name in Chinese, this has been glued to the center of the colored plate, and the white edge has been cut to make some petals. Other petals have been cut from tissue paper and stuck on the white petals. At the end of the work, each student has realized his "flower". The head and paws of the dragon have been made with other paper plates and then painted with tempera. A long rope was inserted in all the dishes to form a long, colorful snake ... and here is our fantastic dragon!
A special thanks to the wonderful Year 6 teacher, Ms Formoso!!

DeleteSimply amazing!! How many students worked on this, or how many paper plates did you use? The dragon is SO impressive!
ReplyDeleteHi Miss March! In this class students are 23, but we did some more plates (27 in all) and we add the plate with the dragon head. Between the plates we put tubes of pasta (penne) for separating a plate on the other. Thanks for your comment!!
