(All materials will be enough for 12-14 children, 2 educators, and 1 student).BEGINNINGThe activity will be set up on the art table by the student, who will start doing the activity herself. The glue will be poured in multiple foam bowls, approximately 1 bowl for 3 children. Popsicles will be used to stick the glue on the paper. The rain drops cuttings with a hole in each cutting, will be set in 3-4 baskets. As children will notice, they will take interest. The student will then tell the children the importance of sharing the materials and doing the activity together as a group. MIDDLEAs children will show interest, they will be welcomed to come to the art table and share the art materiel with their peers. The educators and student will guide and encourage children to draw and cut paper clouds. Children will stick the wool on their clouds using the glue with the popsicles. To join rain drops together, blue wool strings will be used with knots after each rain drop. These rain strings will later on be joined with the cloud.END/TRANSITIONChildren will be welcomed to take their rainy clouds to their homes. In order to have a smooth transition, yet teaching discipline to the children, I will allow them sufficient time to end their activity. Then, I will let them know that the time of our activity is going to finish after a little time. They can work on their projects for little more time. This way they would know that the activity time is going to get over. Based on their interest, same activity can be repeated in future. Children will be encouraged to tidy up with the educator after the activity has been finished. ................
