Lesson summary: Application “Our friend - Traffic Light”


Plasticine traffic light

When coming up with crafts on the theme “Fun traffic light”, do not forget about plasticine, which children love to play with and which can be found in almost every home. With basic modeling skills, you can make a textured or naturalistic traffic light.

Option 1.

The body of the road unit is molded from plasticine - it can be rectangular or oval. Lightly pressed circles of the desired colors are attached to one side. To make the structure more durable, you can insert a pencil or stick inside.

Option 2.

You can make a panel from plasticine. You will need cardboard inserted into a frame and plasticine.

A traffic light is drawn on cardboard, the entire plane is filled with plasticine of a neutral color (black, gray, beige). Signal lights are made from red, green and yellow plasticine. You can complicate the work if you use plasticine for the panel, formed into small balls - they are fixed to the base, slightly flattened.

From a plastic bottle

It would seem that an empty plastic bottle is a waste item, but how much can be made from it! can be done in different ways.

Option 1.

3 caps are painted in signal colors and are attached to an empty bottle. A stick attached to another lid-stand is inserted into the bottle cap. That's all!

Option 2.

A bottle craft can become a real masterpiece. To do this, paint the bottle a neutral color, turn the lid down and draw or stick on eyes, nose, and mouth using self-adhesive tape. Place the signals in the middle. Glue hands from cardboard or fabric to the sides, and make legs from below. You can give the traffic light a police baton and a traffic sign.

Paper miracles

If you approach the task creatively, you can create a lot from paper, and you don’t need designer or expensive paper - what’s in every home will come in handy.

Application

On the rectangular one we draw circles, keeping the same interval between them. Circles can be drawn with a compass or using a template, tracing the selected object (cup, saucer, jar). Then you can act on one of the options.

Option 1.

Take 3 sheets of colored paper - red, yellow and green - and tear them into small pieces. Each circle is filled with paper pieces.

Option 2.

You can fill in the signal circles at a traffic light by cutting colored paper into small squares, then screw each square onto a pen rod and glue the end part onto the circle. You'll get a fluffy traffic light!

The traffic light is made using the kusudama method. You will need paper of 3 colors and a stand.

Cut into squares measuring 5x5 cm. The modules are assembled according to the diagram, then 3 modules are added together. 1 ball will require 24 blanks. A ball is assembled from the modules; it must be attached to a leg.
