During the teaching sessions one of my favorite activities is Mural Painting. It's one of those long activities where demand from the teacher lots of organization and clear tasks. Organization when taking on count space, resources, materials, class procedures, skills to be developed and techniques to be used. Clear tasks when thinking about the objective of the activity as a collaborative project, joining tallents and skills, redirecting efforts for a common project, encouraging tollerance and respect on the children, doing an introduction to modern Art, intervening the space with Art...how Art affects a common space in school??
The teacher must take on count all these issues. Big deal indeed!!!
Some pictures to show what I am talking about...

Usually my pupils developed abstract murals, using their own silhouettes. Initially they lied over a big piece of paper, one by one they covered the whole paper with their bodies and traced the shapes using ols pastel. Little by little appeared crossed figures..fragmented silohuettes. These abstract shapes would be painted with different colours. To me this project is like an introduction to abstraction and mural paint. It's an amazing collaborative project!!
