Notes on testoplasty in the senior group Topic: “Red cat”

Sculpting cats and kittens is always interesting; these cute pets are well known to every child, so he can calmly create without being distracted by trying to find out how the animal looks or moves. At the same time, you can create not only realistic figures, but also characters from your favorite games, fairy tales or cartoons. A cat made of plasticine will be a good gift for a mother, grandmother or teacher to make the craft look prettier; it can be easily supplemented with beads, rhinestones or other decorations.

Basics of working with plasticine: how to get started

Before making a cat out of plasticine, you should prepare the material of the desired color; if such a block is not in the box, you can mix several different pieces.

The most convenient way to start sculpting any parts is by rolling balls, which are subsequently given the desired shape. To draw fingers or fur on a plasticine craft, it is better to prepare toothpicks in advance - the stack may be too thick for neat lines (it is also convenient to attach the figure’s head to them so that it holds more securely). Antennae can be easily made from pieces of wire or pine needles, and beads can be installed instead of eyes.

If you mix pieces of different colors (for example, orange, black and white), not completely, you will get the original three-color color of the animal.

Modeling in the preparatory group: how to make the lesson interesting

Ways to motivate children

Children’s own drawings can be used as visual materials.

This is interesting. Russian Soviet writer, classic of Russian literature K.G. Paustovsky wrote: “The impulse to creativity can fade away just as easily as it arose if it is left without food.”

How effective the entire lesson will be depends on the way in which the teacher insists that children work. Techniques for motivating children can be different - an adult combines them depending on the specific modeling task, the level of development of the children, their temperament and interests.

Conversation and visibility

These two ways to interest little creators go together because without a visual image it is difficult for children to imagine a picture, and without dialogue it is impossible to rationally organize work. So, as visual materials you can use

• pictures and photos of kids playing with pets;
• individual images (can be enlarged) of animals, in particular, faces, figures of a boy/girl;
• presentations, cartoons showing moving objects;
• posters, toys, etc.

The conversation can be built solely on the basis of what is seen (“Who is shown in the picture?”, “What is the animal/child in the photo doing/in what position is it standing?”), but you can also preface it with a few questions regarding what type of animal the cat belongs to/ dog, do the kids have pets, what kind, do they like to play, etc. Kids can answer either individually or in chorus. The main thing is to stay within the time frame - you shouldn’t spend more than 5-6 minutes on motivation.

Poems

Children love to listen to poetry, since the structure of their memory is such that they memorize rhymed lines faster and easier than adults.

• No, it was in vain that we decided to take the cat for a ride in the car: the cat was not used to riding - he overturned the truck.
• Paws and a tail, and funny ears that stick out in corners on the top of the head, fluffy fur, mischievous eyes... Listen, you didn’t come running to us from a fairy tale? Again the ball unwound around the apartment - There is no better entertainment in the world!
• My cunning-eyed puppy, Woolen paws... Who is it that chewed on our brand new slippers? I see the answer in the eyes: No, it’s not me, no, no! The slippers went into my mouth on their own and accidentally came apart...

Songs

This technique not only motivates the children, but can also be a good accompaniment for physical education or finger gymnastics.

Scheme for developing lesson notes

The teacher must definitely think about how to seat the children so that they do not interfere with each other

In order for a modeling lesson on creating a figure of a person playing with an animal to be successful, drawing up a work plan should begin with the formulation of goals and objectives.

Goals:

• teach how to compose a complex composition consisting of 2 objects in dynamics;
• continue to work on developing the ability to maintain proportions;
• cultivate patience and independence.

Tasks:

• repeat the basic geometric shapes - the basics of blanks for figures;
• develop the ability to convey the movement of objects using design;
• continue to practice sculpting techniques;
• consolidate the skill of conveying the dynamics of the human and animal body in plastic material;
• continue to develop the skill of working with a stack to create relief of elements;
• develop fine motor skills and eye;
• cultivate aesthetic taste and accuracy when working with plastic materials.

The development of notes should include clear timing of each stage of the lesson.

• The introductory part (5 minutes) is the time to involve children in work, that is, for motivation.
• The main stage (20 minutes) is sculpting a composition, as well as finger gymnastics and physical education.
• Final stage (5 minutes). The teacher praises the children’s productive work, the kids exhibit their compositions at an impromptu exhibition, evaluate their crafts and the crafts of their comrades, answering a number of questions (“Did I work well?”, “What did I do especially well?”, “What figures do I like?” more than others?”, “Why?”, “What did I like/dislike during the lesson?”).

Examples of writing lesson notes

The first example describes how to create a craft in a constructive way. If a human figurine is made with its help, then parts of the body can be moved and given the necessary pose. The main thing is to adhere all the parts well to each other.

Cat and cute kittens from plasticine: making a family

How to make a cat with kittens from plasticine:

1. Cut a long sausage at both ends to highlight the legs.
2. Bend the workpiece into the shape of the body.
3. Attach the ponytail.
4. Roll out a ball-head, use your fingers to separate triangles-ears from it and slightly extend the nose part.
5. Decorate the muzzle with voluminous details or paints and add a mustache.
6. Form small kittens from plump sausages, outlining the neck line and extending long tails.

For kids in the older group, for whom it is easy to sculpt such a figurine, it is worth offering to invent and make an older cat and kitten.

Other examples of sculpting cat families

To make plasticine kittens and cat figures more accurate, the surface of the parts is smoothed with wet fingers.

Detailed and intricate animal figures

Modeling a cat family from clay

If you want to make a real figurine, then instead of plasticine, take another material. For example, clay. This is a popular mass for sculpting souvenirs; it is very easy to work with. Polymer clay (plastic) for crafts is sold in handicraft, art and online stores. This material has its own characteristics:

• Self-hardening clay hardens in air. This may take 2 days.
• Baking clay hardens when heated. It is kept in the oven for 10-30 minutes.
• Clay can be tinted, that is, mixed with paint to obtain all kinds of colors.
• To reliably fasten clay fragments, you need to moisten them with water.

Clay cat

First, make the simplest figurine . For the master class you will need:

• clay;
• modeling board;
• toothpick;
• water in a bowl;
• brush and paints (acrylic or watercolor).

Take the amount of clay with the expectation that you will get a craft of the required size. Let's get started with some fun sculpting:

1. 
   Divide a piece of clay in two. One segment will make a body. From the second part, sculpt the paws, tail, ears and cheeks.

2. The body should be shaped like a rounded cone. Press the bottom of the shape onto a flat surface to make it stable.
3. Break off fragments from a smaller piece of clay to form ears. These will be two pointed triangles. Moisten these parts with water and connect them to the body.
4. In a similar way, mold the remaining elements for the muzzle: voluminous cheeks, eyes, nose. Don't forget also about the last important detail - the tail. Moisten all this in water and secure it to the body.
5. Add details to the finished figurine using a sharp toothpick. You can make pupils, a charming smile and dots on the cheeks. The mustache will be made from wire or fishing line.
6. Wait for the craft to dry for a couple of days and paint the cat to your taste.
