PYP Recycled Art Materials

PYP students at Lancers have been learning about recycling and sharing the planet. In Visual Arts as well as their homeroom classes the students have learnt the importance of recycling and how it impacts the environment, the community, and the planet. In the art lessons we have created new works of art from recycled materials. Foundation students used recycled paper towel rolls for the trunks of their trees, and recycled paper to create self portraits to go with their UOI Where We Are in Place and Time, of the different seasons. Nursery students used recycled water bottles to create octopii by learning about imaginative use of materials to go with their UOI, How we Express Ourselves. Grade one also used recycled water bottles to create fish to go with their UOI Sharing the Planet.

PYP Visual Arts Rangoli Designs

The PYP Visual Arts at Lancers created Rangoli designs for the Festival of Diwali. The students worked in groups in their grade levels to create wonderful designs which are beautiful works of art. Rangoli designs are traditionally made of coloured powder, rice, or paint on the floors during Indian Festivals.
