Last week, the children went on an educational tour at the National Gallery. They saw many interesting and beautiful art pieces there. We focused on 2 art pieces at the Gallery and discussed them in detail.
1. The Net – Most definitely the Singapore River by Teo Eng Seng
The children discussed what they thought of the art piece. Some thought that the pieces of paper in the net looked like islands and others thought they looked like sea creatures. 
Teo Eng Seng, a Singaporean artist, invented the ‘paperdyesculp’ method and used it as a medium in creating his art piece. He depicted the polluted Singapore River in the 1970s to 1980s in this art piece. 

2. Households of the South – Xu Bei Hong
The children saw the many shapes that Xu Bei Hong used in painting the houses in China. He used a large rectangle to depict a tall building and small squares to depict the windows on the buildings. Lines were used to create illusions of stairs. The children spotted a small tree at the top right corner of the painting. They discussed the size of the tree and concluded that things that are far away seemed smaller.

Through this painting, the children learnt about shapes, lines and perspective drawing. 

Throughout the week, the children looked at other famous paintings at the National Gallery that we did not had the time to study when we were there. These include ‘The Whip’, ‘Forest Fires’, ‘Portrait of Lim Loh’ and ‘Life by the River’. We engaged in meaningful art conversations and asked questions such as ‘What is the person doing in the painting?’, ‘Where do you thing the animals are going?’, and ‘How do you think he is feeling?’

‘How would you pose if you were the person in the painting?’ The children were creative and posed spontaneously for their friends in class. As a closure to the week, the children created a picture using shapes working in pairs. This helped them to appreciate one another’s ideas.

During the week, the children were introduced to the topic of ‘Money’. 

First, the childen looked at the different note series that were printed in Singapore. These include the ‘Orchid’, ‘Bird’, ‘Ship’, and ‘Portrait’ series. These notes came in denominations such as $1, $5, $10, $20, $50, $100 and $500. It was interesting to see how the Singapore notes have evolved through the years. The children were able to relate to the current ‘Portrait’ series and they were curious to find out who the man on the Singapore note was. We did some research and we found out that the mysterious man was none other than Singapore’s first president, Yusof bin Ishak!

After learning about the different denominations of money used in Singapore, we played a game on the Interactive Whiteboard. We had to purchase our tickets to the places of interest in Singapore and give the exact amount required. The children did a great job at that! 

Parents, you may engage in some fun role play activities at home with your child. Learning about how to use money will help children be better prepared when buying food in Primary Schools. Do talk about the value of money and the importance of saving as well!
