initial sketches
sketches in second round
embroidery from chosen pattern
element:water
she is motivated, and like a sea who absorbs everything inside
A lot of kids struggled with visuals as well as recognizing the key words that relate to them with the element, especially the younger kids struggled. But some of them managed to explore visuals using only wavy lines. A lot of time went in doing visuals, so the fifth day got over with just the pencil drawings and a bit of planninng of stitches they were going to use for their visuals. They were told to start embroidery at home as they had a weekend.
On the day sixth some children came with interesting embroidery, I gave them time to embroider on the sixth day (that is Monday), it becomes difficult for them to take out time at home to embroider as a lot of them go with their parents for work in the evening. It was important for me to sit with them to help them look at the possibilities of combining different stitches, while younger kids spent time finishing their geometric designs.
CRITIQUE:
I think children could do this exercise without doing mind-map, as it consumed a lot of time. They could have just said why they wanted to be a particular element, that was enough.
