Preschool - Making Our Own Plant Paint

This week in our Preschool room, we became the inquirer's and experimented something new! We went outside and saw our plants (coriander and basil) that has grown so much. So we thought carefully on what we can do with it.

We decided to bring some plants to our classroom, mash it up with a rock (like the caveman) and squeeze it to make the green juiceOur students loved exploring the natural resources in this Unit of Inquiry - smelling the coriander and the basil, touching and feeling the texture, and observing the process of how the plant can change into liquid.

They were all very surprised to see how we can paint with something that we made using the plants we grew in our garden! It is awesome to see our students becoming more open-minded. By giving them the opportunity to think outside the box, makes them understand that we can create art with endless resources, not just with paint and paint brush.
