Description

Build Circle patterns out of different natural materials with each ring in a different material or pattern

Resources

Stones, Twigs, Leaves, Ferns etc

Instructions

Find an attractive tree section or object to sit in the circle centre.
Encourage the children to think about all of the natural materials they have found today, focusing
on their colour, shape and texture.
Can they suggest something to make the first
concentric ring around the object that you have
placed in the circle centre? Send the children
to find several of the chosen material and then
return to place them down.
Remind the children that they are creating
a piece of art and that they should arrange
things carefully, making sure that things are
placed in the same direction and the right
way up.
Once they have placed their objects down, they
should stand back in the circle ready to discuss
the next layer.
Think about using scarce materials for the first
few rings and more readily available materials
for the larger outer rings.
Build up contrasting rings for maximum effect. After creating about 8 to 9 different rings stand
back to admire your work. Take a photo as a permanent record to display
