New words
vase · guldondry leaf · quruq bargnatural material · tabiiy material
Explanation
Natural materials come from nature: leaves, seeds, stones, twigs. We cut the vase from coloured paper and make the flowers from dry leaves and seeds. We dry the leaves first between the pages of a book.
Worked examples
A yellow leaf for a petal, a pumpkin seed for the flower centre.
Class activity
Steps: 1) Fold coloured paper in half, draw half a vase and cut it out — unfold for an even vase. 2) Glue it at the bottom of the card. 3) Arrange leaves above it as flowers. 4) Decorate with seeds. Safety: hold the folded paper firmly and cut slowly.
