FMP

I was asked for my FMP to produce the children's activity pack for Canterbury College's End of Year Art Show. The first thing I had to do was choose a theme and have Mark Howland ok it. I had several options for example Pirates, Carnival, Transport or the Beach, however both Babs and Mark preferred one of my other ideas which was a Fruit and Veg theme. With this theme I could make it very educational as well as fun and interesting.


Ideas I have to include in the pack:

• Arcimboldo colouring exercise
• Where was food originally from - world map
• How do they grow - underground, on the ground, on a bush or in a tree
• Wordsearch
• Draw their own character - perhaps a competition

Ideas I have for activities:

• Creating a Arcimboldo inspired face - group exercise with cut out fruit and veg
• Cress heads - decorate yoghurt pot then add soil and cress seeds
• Make a garden - shoe box, dirt, lollypop sticks for flower beds, beads for flowers???

Any suggestions would be grateful.
