At preschool age, the act of sticking shapes onto card or paper can be a useful tactile exercise requiring coordination and decision making. Here the children stick flower shapes onto te outline of a dress, and show their results to the teacher.
SHIVA Preschool class work. Using glue and coloured shapes to make a "dress design".
SHIVA Charity (UK) puts these free educational pages on its web site in order to be used primarily in Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Darjeeling, India, where lessons are mostly repetitive "chalk and talk" and curriculum restrained. We are involved in teachers' resources training there, and hope that schools in the UK and elsewhere will support SHIVA Charity's cause with funding. Please visit our main pages to see the work we do, and how we raise money for individual projects and for child sponsorship.
School glue in bottle tops and shapes in plastic plates for ease of use.
Children proudly show their work.
