UNIT 1 To draw the human figure in different postures To use outlines to draw circus characters To practise colouring Graphite pencil Coloured pencils Rubber 1 Circus characters Show students a photograph of a person and draw a simple outline of it on the board. The students compare the photograph and the outline. The students listen to track 1.1 and answer. Next, they draw the circus characters and colour them. At the end of every lesson in this unit, play Clean up song, track 0.2. See Teacher s Book, p. 8 for the lyrics. Draw and colour the circus characters. Resources in the i book ART MASTERPIECES seven 7 Anticipating difficulties The human figure is very difficult for children to draw. Revise body parts, then volunteers act out different postures. Track 1.1: Circus characters Listen and say: the clown or the dancer. Who has got a flower? The clown or the dancer? The clown. Who has got a dress? The clown or the dancer? The dancer. Now you! Who has got a black hat? Who has got red hair? Who has got his eyes open? Who has got her eyes closed? Draw and colour the circus characters. Students will examine the painting L acrobate sur le cheval (Acrobat on horse) by Fernand Léger (1881-1955). Léger began studying architecture but then changed to art. His first paintings were in the Cubist style. He is famous for his stained glass, mosaics, ceramics, tapestries and stage designs. Some of the most recurrent themes in his work are circus scenes, jazz music and natural environments full of trees and flowers. In many of his paintings, the figures are outlined in black to separate them from the background. Colour with crayons. ART LEARNING TO LEARN The use of simple sketches helps students organise their work in stages. Postures of the human figure Students colour the human figure in different postures. Unit 1 16

23 UNIT Dancers 1 T o cut out different pieces to make human figures T o make movable puppets from two-dimensional shapes Glue Card Scissors Punch and mat Split pins Students look at the dancers. Play track 1.2 and students listen and point to the parts of each dancer s body. Cut out the pieces and make the dancers. fifty-seven 314325 _ 0057-0072.indd 57 10/03/11 9:02 How Arts & Crafts relates to other subjects Worksheet 1. Muscles and bones SCIENCE Science Identify muscles and bones. 1. Tell your partner: Point to the body parts on the page and say bone or muscle. Describe the steps to follow: Cut off the page at the dotted line. Then, carefully cut out the pieces. Punch holes in all the pieces. Put the parts together with split pins. The students complete the craft individually. Then, in pairs, they invent a simple dialogue for their dancers. Finally, they act out the dialogues in front of the class. Anticipating difficulties To make the separate pieces stiffer, students can glue them onto card before cutting them out. 2. Say which of the body parts are hard and rigid. Say which ones are soft and flexible. 3. Colour the bones yellow and the muscles red. 1 01/08/11 8:42 Worksheet 2. Count the nuts 01/08/11 8:42 381499 _ 0001-0016.indd MATHS Maths 1. Colour 10 chestnuts with coloured pencils. 2. Colour 10 walnuts with felt pens. 3. How many walnuts are not coloured? How many walnuts are there in total? How many chestnuts are there in total? 2 Colour by tens. 381499 _ 0001-0016.indd 18:29 57 Track 1.2: Dancers Listen and point. Point to the dancers. Now, look at their body parts. Point to their heads. Point to their bodies. Point to the girl s arms. Point to the boy s arms. Point to the girl s legs. Point to the boy s legs. Cut out the pieces and make the dancers. Track 0.2: Clean up song L INGUISTIC COMMUNICATION Students invent a simple dialogue between the two dancers. 17 314336 _ 0001-0035.indd 17 28/10/11 8:42

UNIT 1 To develop creativity To listen closely to a dictation To draw freely Graphite pencil Coloured pencils Rubber Ask the students: Do you like circuses? Do you like clowns? Play the drawing dictation, track 1.3. The students listen and draw the clown. Pause after each part of the description to give students time to complete the clown. When they have finished, the students compare their drawings. CREATIVITY DRAWING DICTATION Let's go to the circus! Track 1.3 Listen and draw the clown. In the centre of the paper, draw a clown standing on a ball. He s got a happy face. He s got red hair and big, green glasses. He s got flowers in his hand. To develop creativity To foster interest in drawing as a means of expression To freely illustrate some music Graphite pencil Rubber Coloured pencils Drawing the music Children s game by Béla Bartók Track 1.4 The students listen to the music and draw a scene of children playing. Set the scene before listening to the music: What games do you play with your friends? Imagine you are in a park. There are children playing. Listen to the music and draw you and your friends playing games. 18

UNIT 1 CRAFTS A plasticine clown To practise modelling shapes with plasticine To revise geometric shapes To revise body parts Plasticine Scissors Glue Card Track 0.3: I m plasticine Track 0.2: Clean up song Draw a clown figure on the board using simple geometric shapes. Ask: What shape is the head? What shape are the arms? Etc. Give out pieces of plasticine of different colours. Play the song I m plasticine, track 0.3 while students work on the craft. See Teacher s Book, p. 8. The students make simple geometric shapes out of the plasticine and arrange them to make the clown s figure. For example, they use a triangle to make a hat, a big rectangle for the body and smaller rectangles for the arms, legs and shoes. Once they have shaped and arranged the pieces, the students glue their clown figures onto card. Afterwards, they make the clown s face, buttons and balloon out of plasticine. After students have completed the craft, play the Clean up song, track 0.2. Finally, ask the students about the difficulties they had making their clown. What was the most difficult part to do? Anticipating difficulties Encourage students to express their own creativity and not simply copy the model. 19
