Learning Area: iExplore: Shadow Puppets

Learning Observed

We have been looking at shadow theatre on Youtube. We watched a shadow dance and shadow puppets with hands and with paper cut outs. We started by sharing some of the knowledge we have already about shadow puppets and then thought of some questions we had about them. Taj was able to share some of the handshapes he knew to make a shadow puppet with a partner and then to the whole group. He said he can make a shadow spider with his hands.

Evidence of learning

Taj shares his knowledge with the group. I wonder if he likes to ask questions at home?

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Taj can Connect with what he already knows about Shadow Puppets and can Collaborate through sharing ideas and building new knowledge from others (Thinking, Relating to Others, Using Language, Symbols and Text).
