Clown made of geometric shapes
For work we will need:
- colored paper;
- cardboard (for the base);
- a simple pencil;
- markers;
- stencil ruler;
- scissors and glue.
We prepare the necessary preparations:
- circles (multi-colored) – 6 pieces (for the face and balls);
- triangles – 5 pcs. (for pants, sleeves and cap);
- asterisk (for collar);
- ovals - two (for boots and hands).
Let's get to work.
We make the main details of the application. Use a special ruler with geometric shapes for this:
Place it on the base of the required color and outline the shapes with a pencil. Cut out the blanks with scissors. Cut one oval in half - these will be the shoes. From the second half we will need, we will also cut it into two - hands. Lay out the parts on cardboard and secure with glue. Draw the face - eyes, nose and mouth. The picture is ready.
Progress of the lesson:
Music from the movie "Circus" is playing.
Hello children. Today we are going to the circus.
Children make a circus tent out of geometric shapes. The teacher asks to name the shapes (circle, triangle, square, rectangle) and their color.
Let's put the elephant on a big stand. Put? Now let’s put the lion on a small pedestal. Walk the horse around in a circle. Place the monkey on the swing. Make a ladder out of counting sticks.
Children use scissors to cut tickets along the line.
A clown performs at the circus. He is cheerful and tries to cheer everyone up.
Look, it's a clown. Let's put makeup on him, make him beautiful. Glue on the clown's hair, hat and bow.
Now we will help decorate another clown. Let's make him a beautiful collar from clothespins.
A strongman performs in our circus. He is very strong and can lift enormous weights.
Experiment “Heavy-light”
Hold the bags in your hands and tell which ones are light and which are heavy. Children are offered bags with cotton wool and pebbles.
In this picture, a strongman in a circus lifts heavy weights and a barbell. Organize buttons by color and size.
Dynamic pause “Playing with weights”
Take the weight in your right hand. Lift it up, put it on your shoulder, lower it to the floor. Grab the kettlebell with your left hand. Lift it up, put it on your shoulder, hide it behind your back. Place a weight on the floor in front of you and jump over it.
In the circus, trainers always perform with their trained animals.
Didactic game “Animals in Cages”
After the performance, the animals return to their cages. Help put the animals in cages. Place a tall giraffe in a tall cage, then select suitable cages for the zebra and monkey.
Children arrange cardboard pictures of elephants from largest to smallest.
Didactic game “Find the shadow”
Children attach colored silhouette images of animals to their black silhouette shadows.
Exercise “Trained Animals”
Children, if desired, put on animal hats and follow the teacher-trainer’s commands: stand, sit, lie down, crawl, crawl into a fiery ring-hoop, walk along a bench, climb over an obstacle.
Construction of “Horse Fences” from building material
Children make fences from bars placed on the side edge: low - from one bar, medium - from two bars, high - from three bars laid on top of each other.
Game "Circus Horse"
A saddle is attached to the fly horse toy - a piece of thick fabric on the back and a decoration - a feather is stuck into a piece of plasticine attached to the horse's head. Then the horse jumps over the fences. To jump over a high fence, the horse must jump high.
Didactic exercise “Snake”
Open the box and take out the snake cord. How long is the snake? The snake is long. Pull the string and show how the snake crawls. Place the string snake back into the box and cover with the lid.
Dynamic pause “Performance with a snake”
Children lie down on the “snake” laid out on the floor with their chests and swing their arms and legs, then turn over, lie on their backs, and raise their arms and legs up. Walking on a snake, crawling, jumping over.
Magicians also perform at the circus.
Didactic exercise “What’s in the ball?”
Children are given balls and asked to determine by touch which ball has one pebble and which has many pebbles.
Didactic game “What disappeared?”
Three objects are laid out in front of the children, covered with a scarf, and one object is quietly removed. Children must name this missing item.
Didactic game “Colored water”
The teacher paints the lid of the water jar in advance. After the words “Hocus Pocus!” The jar is shaken and the water becomes colored. Children name the color the water is colored. Then, using a brush and paint, they paint the water in the non-pouring bottle according to the color of the sticker pasted on it.
Drawing “Fireworks in the circus arena”
Children draw fireworks with paints using toothbrushes, moving them up and to the sides from the image of the magician.
The little one and I did it!
Since our family has an ingrained tradition of remembering everything at the last moment, this case was no exception. My son Vadik told me about the assignment exactly one day before it was due. There was nowhere to go - I had to get to work!
Clown made of colored paper
To create an application you will need the following templates:
You can draw them or print them on a printer.
Also prepare:
- paper of different colors;
- black marker;
- PVA glue;
- scissors.
Technique: make applique details from the colored base. Glue the hair to the head:
We put on the clown's hat (using glue). We glue the elements of the face (eyes, nose, eyebrows, cheeks, mouth). Draw ears, eyes and a smile with a marker:
Features of cut-off appliqué
Creating a color picture using a template drawn on the main sheet or piece of cardboard, the workflow is close to assembling puzzles. This helps develop spatial and imaginative thinking in young children.
When working with cut-out applique, the image is formed using scraps of colored, colorful paper.
During an exciting creative activity, all the muscles of the child’s hands actively work, which has a positive effect on the good development of fine motor skills, which is reflected in the general intellectual level.
The painstaking work of assembling an image from small parts instills in little masters the perseverance and patience that are so necessary from the first years of school.
This unique type of applique is distinguished by some nuances, of which it should be mentioned that the work often turns out to be quite heavy and a thin sheet will bend unsightly under the weight of the pasted layers, of which there may be several.
Therefore, it is better to take a sheet of cardboard or other thick paper for the base, and use a pencil for children’s creativity as glue, which does not leave excess and untidy fragments.
When preparing pieces of torn paper for gluing, you need to make sure that they are approximately the same size. You can use pictures from used coloring books as templates or print them from the Internet.
Volumetric applique with a clown
We will need the following tools and materials:
- paper (velvety and corrugated);
- scissors;
- pencil and ruler;
- office glue.
First, cut out a circle from yellow colored paper - the head of a clown. Create eyes from white and black. To make hair blanks, cut colored corrugated paper into strips (length – 12–14 cm, width – 6–8 cm). Then screw them onto a pencil. Squeeze like an accordion. Roll the resulting tube into a donut and secure the edge with glue. Your hair should look like this.
We make the bow in a similar way, but we cut the strips wider and longer. Glue together two multi-colored curls in the shape of a figure eight. Cut out a small star from paper and decorate the butterfly with it. We assemble a face from these parts, gluing them with glue. And we get this result:
Decorate the clown as you wish. They make different types of hair, for example, from a washcloth, from threads and paper bows, from accordion-folded paper or from puzzles.
How to make a city layout
We thought about it a little and decided that since time was running out, we would make a road + a couple of buildings + some kind of transport. We decided - we do it.
We took a piece of thick cardboard, cut out a 40 by 30 cm rectangle from it. Then we pasted it on one side with A4 office paper.
Having carefully trimmed the edges, we got a base for the layout, which is ready for painting.
They drew an impromptu road
The next step was to build a high-rise building. I don’t give explicit dimensions, since everything was done by eye...
Before gluing the building together I decorated it
This is what happened after gluing
We cut the back of the building to size, then glued it on and also painted it.
Fun clown
Necessary materials:
- colored napkins and paper;
- beautiful button;
- eyes from a creativity kit and glitter;
- paper for background;
- scissors;
- stapler;
- glue;
- threads;
- glitter pencils;
- red felt-tip pen;
- Double-sided tape.
Do all the basic details. For convenience, print out this template:
Glue all the parts of the costume step by step onto a separate white sheet. Cut out the clown outfit with scissors. Sew a button to the vest and stick a bow on top.
We glue double-sided tape to our hands, boots and hat. We secure the nose and eyes with tape. Draw a smile with a red felt-tip pen.
Making fluffy pompoms. To do this, fold the napkin in several layers (the thicker it is, the fluffier the workpiece will be). Then, using the template, draw a circle (2.5 - 3 cm). Cut it out and fasten the circles with a stapler.

Tear-off napkin appliques
To create beautiful, airy works using the appliqué technique, multi-colored paper napkins are widely used.
They are torn into small pieces and glued with the middle part of the elements so that the edges remain slightly raised and create volume in the composition.
Applications made from pieces of colored napkins rolled into arbitrary soft balls look original.
