The activity aimed at giving the students’ hands-on experience besides creating joyful classrooms. The purpose of the activity was explained to the students and they were given a brief on how the activity would be conducted.
There was excitement in the air as students got ready with the first step that was mixing of two kinds of clay. Each student then took a small portion and then gave a round, circular, triangular etc shape to the clay as per his/her choice. The clay was then left to set. The next step was painting the pendant with a base colour. The following day, students began painting different designs on the pendant. The students had a free hand and made a variety of shapes and designs. While some made abstract patterns others painted stars, sea, trees, worli art etc. The beautiful array of designs was a sight to behold. Finally, the pendant was given finishing touches and a beaded string was put in the hole. The students wrote beautiful messages on a card and mounted their pendant on the card. It was heartening to see teamwork, coordination and cooperation among the students while doing this activity.
