Creating 3D Forest dioramas…

This week we have learned how to make Forest themed Dioramas.

Children have learned how to fold a sheet of card to make it stand on its own and create an illusion of 3-dimensionality.  Having the background for our 3D diorama we then proceeded in creating different types of trees and foliage to add to the scene. 

Kids have used colour paper to cut out tree shapes, adding also some animals and buildings.

Children have learned a technique of preparing tracing templates and  tracing them with crayons, to achieve quite effective plant and tree shapes. 

Having the trees ready Kids have glued them to different planes of their background, creating an illusion of 3-dimensionality. 

We have created a massive 3D Forest!
