Distance Learning Provocations

Focus: Creativity, Nature and Mathematics

We have used loose parts to play games, tell stories and create artwork.

What are Mandalas?

Mandalas have colourful, detailed geometric patterns. They are often in a circular shape or they have points. They have shapes such as circles, diamonds, triangles, ovals, half circles and much more. You can use leaves, flowers, grass, sticks, twigs, feathers, small pebbles, rocks, shells or anything you like.

Today we invite you to make Mandalas using natural materials.
