Hi everyone,

Last time, we studied "dot painting" thanks to a video. You first listened to it and then you watched it.

Here is what we did:

Tuesday, April 26^th

(the twenty-sixth)

Dot painting

è What is dot painting ?

è Describe the technique.

è What major symbols are often represented in dot painting ? 

“Dot painting” is an unusual technique/way of painting used by aborigines. They only use dots.

They use stick to put the paint on paper, rocks or leather and they represent animals, spirits, humans, travels or also ancestors.

HOMEWORK: learn the vocabulary and the symbols on the document + be able to talk about dot painting.

Now, watch this video and try to do dot painting yourselves! Bring it back to school so we can use it as a poster to decorate the classroom, thanks!
