Finding ideas for your lessons

This month at Pelikan it is all about typical national colours. - by this, the colours on a countries flag are meant.

In this edition of Pelikan's Teacher Info we are offering various patterns to download. These can be placed over a pumpkin and then be cut out. These will make sure that you are well protected from demons on October 31st.

Especially for pupils, shoes are important because of the impression they make on others. They represent the need for recognition. The perception of a shoe can suddenly change once they have been given a new look. A shoe turns for example, into an aeroplane, a car, a house, or a ship.

This month we would like to present another dragon which is very easy for your pupils to make.

"Land Art" is a form of art that emerged in the 1960's, the crucial idea being working in and with nature."Seeing, feeling, the material, the location and the form are all intrinsically tied up in the development of my work" wrote Andy Goldsworthy, the Land Artist.

With this extension of Pelikan K12 - The Original we would like to present more pupils' works which have been painted on the basis of our first article concerning Andy Goldsworthy's land art.
