3. First, we drew turtles with
liquid glue

4. Next, we coloured it in with
chalk pastels.

5. Then, we smudged the chalk
pastels and made gradations on
the blue colour of the sea.

6. Here you go!

9. We also drew turtles with oil
pastels and…

10. we coloured the background
with watercolours.

11. We also made some turtles with
volume: we stuffed rubbish bags
with paper, we …

12. put on “paper maché” and we
painted it with white

13. In order to fix better the final
colours.

14. The little ones made some
turtles with nuts and yoghurts.

15. and they also decorated a turtle
with their photographs inside.

16. Related to Turkish culture, we
worked on Henna designs on the
hands

17. First, the kids traced their
hands on a black cardboard

18. then, we looked at some desings
of Henna hands, and did them
with a metallic pen.

19. and here you go the results!

20. We made some camels with
brown cardboard and oil pastels

21. We also combined oil pastels for
the camels and markers for the
carpet.

22. On the background, we designed
a “magic carpet”, also with oil
pastels.

23. We also represented mosques.

24. We used metallic paint and foil
for the domes.

25. So, we made a “Turkish corner”
in the hall of the school.

26. And…of course we made the
puzzle of the Hamdi´s Bey
picture!
