 Have you been to the Singapore Zoological Garden?  What animals can you find?

Today’s Lesson We are going to look at some animals found in Africa. Can you guess these animals?

 Most people who safari in Africa hope to see the "BIG 5". The Big Five refers to five of Africa's greatest wild animals - lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino.

What do you call these images if they represented in black solid shapes? Silhouette!

 A silhouette is the image of a person, an object or scene represented as a solid shape of a single colour, usually black, its edges matching the outline of the subject.  The interior of a silhouette is basically featureless, and the whole is typically presented on a light background, usually white, or none at all.

YOUR TASK  Close your eyes and imagine that you are sitting on a jeep, making your way across the wildlife in Africa.  You feel a little scared as you sense some dangers from the wild animals.  You peek through the window. To your amazement, you see a beautiful and breath-taking sight.  The sun is setting and you can see the silhouette of the wild animals and trees.  Your task: Show us what you see!

Let’s create ART!  Step 1: Paint the background that you see. (Use warm colours) Leave to dry. (Hmmm… what is warm colour?)  Step 2: Find pictures of animals and trees from magazines.  Step 3: Place the pictures on a black paper and cut out its shape carefully.  Step 4: Paste the cut-out carefully.

Let us look at some examples

Now it’s your turn! Art MAKING time! Yey!
