Modeling lessons with children 3-4 years old

You should prepare for modeling in advance with your children. Come up with the texture of the craft, play with it, prepare the necessary equipment. It is better to start simple and gradually complicate the tasks. To begin with, it is better to make three-dimensional figures with children that are more reminiscent of real objects. So, when the child’s hand gains enough strength, drawings can be made with plasticine, that is, with flat textures. How to structure a modeling lesson with children of this age group?

Introductory part:

organize time;
formulation of the problem.

Main part:

prior knowledge of the subject;
casting technology;
self-employment of children.

Final part:

analysis of children's works;
summing up.

Let's look at each part of the lesson in more detail. The introductory part helps prepare the child for the lesson and interest him in modeling. This part is based on play, since play is the main activity in preschool childhood. Children learn everything, children learn everything through play.

The main part of the lesson is direct modeling. Firstly, children are invited to study the sculpted object in detail. The shape, color, and parts from which the object is made are specified. The adult then demonstrates the techniques and techniques of sculpture. Subsequently, the children themselves try to repeat the teacher’s actions.

Along the way, it is specified what color and in what quantity to take plasticine, and also names the technique by which the part or the entire product will be made. So children have time to work independently. Each child decides for himself how to decorate his work, how to assemble an ornamental composition.

The final part of the lesson allows you to summarize: what you learned, what you learned. And collective analysis of children's work allows children to compare their work with others to determine what worked best

The teacher should pay special attention to analyzing the children’s work. It should be emphasized that what was especially successful was the simplest thing that happened

The teacher decides the shortcomings of children's work independently. In the future, this is the basis for individual work on plasticine modeling with a child. During the analysis, children learn to see the positive aspects in other people's works and notice design features.

This lesson structure is used in kindergartens, but when working with a child at home, you should also adhere to this plan. We offer several step-by-step instructions for sculpting plasticine crafts with step-by-step complication.

Step-by-step instructions for sculpting figure No. 2 “Colored umbrellas”

Goal: to create a colored umbrella made of plasticine.

Demonstration material: real large umbrella, children's umbrella.

Materials and equipment for work:

plasticine;
support table;
heap;
thin cocktail tube;
wet or dry wipes.

What else to read: Master class “Making attributes for the role-playing game “Shop” and “Cafe”. Project on design, manual labor (middle group)

Progress of the lesson

Introductory part. An adult asks a child to guess a riddle about rain:

If I cry it doesn't matter
Instead of tears, water flows.
I'm crying so much
Because of the gray cloud...

You can then look at the illustrations in the related books and talk about what people need when it rains. I propose to look at the umbrellas and describe them.

Main part. Before we start sculpting, let’s look together with the child at what parts the umbrella is made of and what shape they have. Now let’s invite the child to choose the color of the future umbrella and decide on its size. The child takes a stack and cuts out the required amount of plasticine from a whole block.

Let's start sculpting. First, the adult shows a running pattern, then the children perform independently. The umbrella dome is a disk, for which we first roll a plasticine ball. Now we flatten the ball between our palms and make the center of the resulting disk slightly convex by pushing it with our thumbs.

To make the rod that holds the dome in place, take a piece of cocktail tubing about 1/3 of the way down. Attach a cocktail straw to the center of the plasticine disk. Now let's work on the handle of the umbrella. It can be in the form of a hook or a plasticine ball.

For the handle hook, take a small sausage out of plasticine, fold it and attach it to the tube. It turned out to be a pen. Now all that remains is to decorate the resulting umbrella. For decoration, you can use plasticine, or you can add different materials: beads, small seeds, cereals.

Final part. At the end of the lesson, we play crafts with the child. For example, let's give a toy hedgehog an umbrella. We will also analyze with the child what he did especially well and where he needed help. Considering this information, we choose the following idea for modeling from plasticine.

Crafts from plasticine

The simplest thing is to take them and throw them in the trash. But take your time. We invite you to remember your childhood, when candy wrappers from the fields...

Hobby Crafts from shells. We make decorations for Christmas trees and gifts for family and friends with our own hands

Seashells and seashells are some of the most accessible and beautiful natural materials. All sorts of crafts are made from them: beautiful panels, original jewelry, various decorative elements, photo frames...

The master classes presented in this article offer options for making plasticine crafts with 3-4 year old children on the topic “Animals”.

The presented transactions differ in the level of complexity. Children 2.5-3 years old can make a snail, especially the first option. Sculpting a kitten already requires special skills in working with pile and knowledge of plucking techniques. To complete the cockerel figurine, the child will have to show perseverance and hard work, since this craft uses many individual elements, the production of which will take some time. Let's take a closer look at the master classes.

To work you will need 3-4 colored plasticine. The ratio of the sizes of the pieces of plasticine should be approximately the same as shown in photo 1. Roll out a long thin sausage from a larger piece, and a plump sausage from a smaller piece (photo 2). Fold the long piece in a spiral into a circle (photo 3).

This element can be a ready-made craft - a figurine of a snail. All that remains is to slightly stretch the edge of the sausage with your fingers and bend it forward, forming a head (photo 4). You can invite your child to perform a more complex version of the snail. A spiral-shaped part remains, this will be the snail shell. Now let's go back to the thicker sausage - this will be the body. We lift one edge and fold it, forming a head. We attach a shell to this part (photo 5).

Roll out two thin sausages and make snail antennae. We make two elements in the form of balls, place them on the snail’s head and flatten them slightly - the eyes are ready. Making these small parts can be difficult for your child, so please help him with this issue.

For creativity, we prepare plasticine of two colors. Cut a large piece of plasticine of the main color into pieces, as shown in photo 8. Unfold a large piece of sausage and fold it in an arc - this will be the body and legs of the kitten. (photo 9)

Roll the smaller piece into a ball and attach it to the body, forming the head. (photo 10) Roll the next larger piece into a long thin sausage - a tail, attach it to the bow on the side opposite the head. (photo 11)

We pinch the plasticine at the top of the head and pull it out slightly, forming an ear.

Lesson with plastic material

The video channel “Super Parents” teaches children (from 1 year old) and their parents the basics of interacting with plastic materials. The blogger uses a special composition and homemade unsweetened dough. It is necessary to familiarize the little master with plastic and tell him for what purposes it is used, after which he can begin to practice. The first stage is kneading, the second is pinching, the third is gluing the parts, the fourth is rolling the ball, the fifth is cakes with your finger or palm, the sixth is sausages and these rings. Cut the sausages into stacked pieces. First the adults help, then the child trains.

We are gradually moving on to more complex crafts.

We suggest mastering plasticine or plasticine quilling by laying out a drawing with plasticine flagella.

It is quite difficult to roll a thin flagellum with small hands, so we offer you a little trick. We will need a syringe in which we put a piece of plasticine.

Dip the syringe into boiling water. We leave it for a couple of minutes, you will have to choose the time, because soft clay melts faster, and hard clay takes longer.

Then we begin to squeeze out strips of plasticine.

Tip: it is not necessary to heat several syringes with plasticine at the same time. It is better to do each color separately, heating the water each time.

When the plasticine has cooled a little, start rotating it in a circle or spiral oval. We make all the preparations that we deem necessary.

And we create our own composition. We decided to make a bouquet. In this case, you can change the composition: the plasticine comes off the paper quite easily; first I “assembled” the bouquet, and then my son. And I think he did better.

She encountered an even more complex technique: creating three-dimensional objects from crepe paper and plasticine. You can watch individual master classes on this technique on our website.

Dividing plasticine into pieces

These business options are at the heart of the next big deals.

Prepare:

plasticine;
a printed image of a chicken, dog or other animal.
(Chicken model)

Ask your child to separate the seeds from the play dough and glue them to a picture of a chicken to feed it. We can feed dogs and other animals in the same way.

We have collected several simple options in another material.

Pressing various objects into plasticine

This is no less important activity. It will help in the future to create unique crafts based not only on plasticine.

Preparing for the lesson:

plasticine base;
any small items (pasta, seeds, beans, beads);
plasticine board.

You can offer your child to plant seeds or mushrooms. If you're looking for an easier activity, buy star-shaped or car-shaped pasta. The child should press them to evaluate the result.

Why did we focus on this type of business? This follows from the two previous lessons. The child already knows how to separate the pieces, make a cake out of them, and as a result he will be able to “put” an additional object into the plasticine. And to make the practice more interesting, you can use this lesson to make a hedgehog from plasticine and seeds.
