![]() All this requires the children to make purposeful, concentrated efforts in movement, a medium ideally suited to them. Having been experienced in movement, these shapes and rhythms are then brought to rest by drawing them on paper. In Form Drawing basic straight and curved lines and shapes are made and drawn by the children, preferably making the shapes with their whole body to begin with (walking, running, sweeping movements of the arms and hands) and later using stick crayons on paper. Draw your blue lines first, then your red. Practice on your practice paper first to make sure you can draw them straight. Once you feel secure, your lines are strong and symmetrical, draw in your borders and put your form in your Form Drawing lesson book. Use the mumma bear side of your blue block for the left hand side – you chose: light or dark blue, use the mumma bear side of your red block to draw the right hand side. Now take your crayons and use the mumma bear side of your dark green block to draw your best, most careful straight line down the middle – just like you just carefully mapped out. Then ‘map out’ the form either side of the line. Take out the practice paper and with the pointer finger of the drawing hand, draw a straight vertical line down the centre of the paper – no crayons yet, just fingers. Then try two hands together, mirror images either side of the line in the air. On one side of this line, draw the form, then draw it on the other – with the same hand. Once secure with walking the form, with the pointer finger of the writing hand, draw a straight line in the air. ![]() If they have a sibling or a parent handy, two can walk together, mirroring the other. The student stands at the top of the rope on one side and walks the shape of the form on one side, then on the other. ![]() Set up your skipping rope in a straight line. The other colours between and around are shading that comes at the end. This form consists of two lines on each side of the central vertical symmetry line first the blue lines, then the red. ![]()
