What to do:
- sharing a
large sheet of paper, children create themselves demonstrating a safety
rule they know.
- a mural is a
picture made as a group that depicts many parts of a theme (ie.
a river or horizon through the length of the paper well help define a common
horizon for some of the children so the finished image looks like it flows)
- use heavy brown
paper (or white craft paper on a roll)
and tempera paint
- place paper on floor
(allow approx. 2’ per child)
- divide parts of
mural up by drawing a border line to indicate each child’s working space
- establish the theme
in everyone’s imagination through story or pictures or simply talking about
it! Everyone uses their space to create their part of the theme
