1.1 Visual Arts Activity Description
Activity Title: “My Dream House – Building with Recyclables”
Description:
In this Visual Arts activity, Grade 5 learners will use recycled materials such as cereal boxes,
cardboard, bottle caps, paper scraps, and tin cans to create a miniature model of their
―dream home.‖ The teacher will begin by briefly introducing the concept of using recycled
materials in art and discussing the importance of environmental awareness (±5 minutes).
Learners will then be instructed to design and build their own 3D houses using the materials
available in the classroom (±20 minutes). They will cut, fold, glue, and decorate their models
creatively, using their imagination to include doors, windows, and unique design features.
The last 5 minutes will be used for a quick reflection where a few learners will present their
models and explain what they created, linking their designs to sustainability and creativity.
