Sand art and play

For this observation, my main objective was how play influences social development, friendship formation and social interactions. This observation took place at the Brookhaven Head Start Center on February, 2016. In this group of preschoolers there was about an equal amount between boys and girls; to make a total of 20 preschoolers in the classroom setting. The very first thing I completed was observing them in the classroom during story time, station time and singing songs while they were dancing. This preschool classroom was small, filled with many detailed pictures and tables where they are assigned to sit at. First, it was time for the preschoolers to sing along and dance to songs they have been learning. These songs said certain commands…

For my clay vessel I made a dog. The elements of art that my dog had were color, texture, and shape. In this essay, I will talk about the elements of art and principles of design I used, the rules I broke while making this dog, and my personal This dog was a bright but also light pink. I got this color by mixing hot pink with white. The texture of my dog was very rough because there were some places that were very hard to sand.

open, blue sky. I see the sparkling azure body contrasting against the bleached white sand. It is exquisitely breath-taking. I close my eyes as I taste the salty spray and feel the sensation of sand blowing alongside my tanned skin. Nature is simply an art that you experience with all 5 senses. I can look upon the soul restoring view of the ocean. I can smell the sunscreen lingering in the air; the sour mix of chemicals and sweat. I can feel the warm sand against my feet, and the sun…

Each station seemed big enough to handle the amount of children that wanted to participate with the exceptions of the sand table and art center.…
