We actually had three sessions since the last post on March 6 to help the kids complete several art pieces for an exhibition. Unfortunately, no photos as they were sent in for selection purposes.
This week, we had an interactive session to help kids learn to observe and draw what they see. The kids were first told to choose a partner each. Then, I broke the news that they had to draw their partners face. Hahaha... you should have seen their reaction!

Teacher's notes
This week, some kids had to stay back at church as they are taking part in an Easter dance performance. So, I was lucky to have more time with the remaining kids who are new to the Home. Hoping to get to know them better. Our stars for the session were Nizam, Azam, Nisa and Syawal We focused on observation of facial features and accurate colour selection...but as you can see they still need practice. Overall, not bad for some first attempts at self-portraiture, I thought!
