The GESM 2nd grade children worked intensively with their sensory organs. Here are some works from art class:
tactile pictures (sensory organ skin),
moving pictures to music (sensory organ ear),
Memory picture to smells and tastes (sense organ nose and tongue)
Thomas:
I think it's great to mix the colors, because it's always a surprise. It's a lot of fun to be creative and I'm always curious to see what comes out!
Julia:
I can run my fingers along my painting. It all feels different. If I were blind, I would feel my picture very precisely.
Marie:
I like to be creative with lots of different materials. I work really long hours to like it; that's what I love about art class.
Bianca:
When I smell corn, I know my grandma is cooking corn. That makes me happy because corn is my favorite food.
Bianca: "I like to perceive all this with my senses."
Bianca: "The smell of corn makes me feel good."
Freya: "Picture to the sounds of Carnival of the Animals."
Julia: "I can blindly feel the other pictures."
Julia: "I love the smell of flowers and horses."
Marie: "All of this is important to me."
Marie: "a musical picture"
Julia's tactile picture: "A blind person could feel my picture."
