Introduction:
 I will show the children a picture of a bunny rabbit painting.
 I will then tell the children that for today’s art lesson, we will be drawing our very own bunny rabbit, and
painting it afterwards.
 I will inform them that I want to see a variety of different colours being used.
Development:
 I will hand out worksheets and inform the class to use their pencil to draw the outline of the bunny rabbit.
 Once they have drawn the outline they must begin painting their rabbit.
 I will then inform them that they are to use a variety of colours, and they can also mix two colours together to
make a new colour, i.e. red and yellow to make orange.
 They also have the option of leaving some parts uncoloured, such as white patches on the ears or mouth.
 I will also give them the option of stapling/glueing a second sheet of white paper below the rabbit if they would
like to draw additional elements such as grass and flowers.

Conclusion:
Cognitive: I will ask the children about their paintings and why they chose the colours they used.
Social: I will inform the children to put their paintings to one side of the class and get ready for the next lesson.
