Have you been to the Singapore Zoological Garden?

What animals can you find?

Today’s Lesson

We are going to look at some animals found in Africa.

Can you guess these animals?

Most people who safari in Africa hope to see the "BIG 5". The Big Five refers to five of Africa's greatest wild animals - lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhino.

What do you call these images if they represented in black solid shapes?

Silhouette!

A silhouette is the image of a person, an object or scene represented as a solid shape of a single colour, usually black, its edges matching the outline of the subject.

The interior of a silhouette is basically featureless, and the whole is typically presented on a light background, usually white, or none at all.

YOUR TASK

Close your eyes and imagine that you are sitting on a jeep, making your way across the wildlife in Africa.

You feel a little scared as you sense some dangers from the wild animals.

You peek through the window. To your amazement, you see a beautiful and breath-taking sight.

The sun is setting and you can see the silhouette of the wild animals and trees .

Your task: Show us what you see!

you see. (Use warm colours) Leave to dry. (Hmmm… what is warm colour?)

Step 2: Find pictures of animals and trees from magazines.

Step 3: Place the pictures on a black paper and cut out its shape carefully.

Step 4: Paste the cut-out carefully.

Let us look at some examples

Now it’s your turn!
