Activity 4                                             Creative Thinking  Collaboration


                                                                            Experiential     Art
                                                                            Learning         Integration
               In the play ‘The Doughnut’, you learnt about Body Theatre. It means
               that it can be performed at any place, with as many or as few actors,
               with or without props.

               Now, let us learn to make a finger puppet.

               You will need:
               •  coloured paper and coloured pens

               •  a pair of scissors

               •  glue
               What to do:

               •  Take a coloured piece of paper and draw your favourite animal
                   on it (make sure it is a small drawing).
               •  Use coloured pens to draw details on the body of the animal,

                   such as the eyes, nose, stripes or spots, etc.
               •  Use the rest of the coloured paper and a pair of scissors to make
                   a small paper ring. Make sure it is big enough to be worn on
                   your finger. You may ask for help from your teacher or parents.

               •  Paste the ring at the back of the
                   animal drawing.
               •  Now, wear the ring on any of

                   your fingers or your thumb.
               Your finger puppet is ready!

               Form groups and make different
               finger puppets. Then, write a
               short story about the animals
               you and your group drew, and
               role-play it in the class.
