Mad Hatters!

As part of the programme of activities, the students design and decorate a hat which they will take home at the end of camp. Read Ita's description of this activity below.

"Making hats is an opportunity for students to discuss logos and design and recognise the role they play in the modern world. Each studdent has to think about colour, form and compostition to demonstrate his/her understanding of English instructions. At the end of the lesson, each student has a beautiful personalized hat which proudly shows their own design."

Elena Traina from Anna's class describes what they did in the lesson.

Art class with Ita is interesting and fun.

First, we drew the design on a piece of paper and coloured it. Then we copied the design on to the hat with pencil.

Finally we painted the hat and decorated it with glitter.

These are our hats!
