Art - Hello, My Name is ...

The story, "Hello, My Name Is Ruby" by Philip C. Stead, was read to the children today. Ruby, a fearless little bird in the story, looks for a friend and starts her adventure in a very big world. Along the story, this little bird keeps introducing herself to make new friends.

"What is a name?" one of the birds in the story wonders. The children in the Water Group pondered as well. The children understood that our names are for others to call us; also, we can introduce ourselves by our names.


For art activity today, we used crayons to write down our name. Then, the children were encouraged to paint and to decorate their name with water colour.






We explored these two art media and observed how crayon and water colour interacted upon our paper.
