Self-awareness and building self-identity

From Frida Kahlo to Vincent Van Gogh, most artists, famous or not, have explored self-portraits. The self-portrait is an introspective art form, where children explore who they are and their sense of self, how they would like to represent themselves while building their self-identity. How we view ourselves may be different from how others view us, thus developing awareness of themselves, empathy and tolerance for others.

SELF-PORTRAIT

We explore that time has hours, minutes and seconds by making our own sand timer and a sundial. The sand timer helps us measure time in seconds, and 60 seconds can add up to make a 1 minute sand timer. The sundial helps us measure time in hours.Each hour the sun casts a shadow on the clock!
