Making Castles

This week with the older children we had a chance to build our own castles ! The boys started by looking on the net for different types of castles. They then had to choose one and do a simple sketch of it. Then I had a box full of cereal boxes, toilet rolls, egg boxes .... for them to fish through to find all the different parts they would need to construct their castles. After much cutting and sticking the castles where painted and admired with pride.
The little ones got to make number hats and pasta painted necklaces !

First weeks of term.

Art in Casa has been going for only 3 weeks but already we have 7 pupils. We have little ones on Friday evenings aged 3 to 4 years. They love to make a mess and get on extremely well with each other. We get to create fun things and in the process learn basic English vocabulary. As this group is so young they also get to have some story time at the end of class.
The Wednesday group aged 5-7 yrs is much smaller which means we can work on more detailed projects like handycrafts as well as working on reading and writing in english.
I am really happy with the classes and each week sees a child or two join the groups. At this rate after christmas we may have to look at adding more classes !
