Session 2

At second lesson we learnt about Pierke Pierlala,Wayang and puppetbuskers festival. We drew a branch with charcoal. 

Then we started to work with clay. We made a soldier of World War 1 with a tank and gun; Maiden and an elephant; a castle. While we did them we have listened somethings about history of Gent. 

After the end of lesson our teacher gave us the rest of the clay. We think to do waffles as a souvenir :) Thanks again Philip!

We have made our puppets with paper mache technique. We left them there for to dry. We will paint them at next lesson. 

I made paper puppets for music lessons with my friends. We used them in the Mozart's piece "Rondo alla Turca"  to do puppet shows.

Toy Library - Ankara

I want to present the Toy Library – Ankara that is a long term social responsibility project which started September 2012 in Ankara under the roof of Action 1.2 Youth Initiatives. 

I am a part of a volunteer team to create equal opportunities for children by providing them toy and game culture. For this goal we accept toy donations from all around Turkey. One of our mission is organizing events and activities for the beneficiary families and children in needs. This activity programme will be decided by the volunteers.

My impressions about session 1

“What have I learned today?”

I like the idea of make a world map about where we come from. And make a circle about what we like. In that ways we got to know each other a bit better. Game of "Shall we....?" was so fun. We were like kids. After we got the information about lesson we went out for taking pictures. Our task was to take macro photos and find something like "Belgian solutions". We walked to the Vooruit café while taking photos. We sat together, chatted and looked at the photos. I have really enjoyed the course. I think this class will improve our creativity and perspective.
