Designing Dashing Diorama!

This project is all about being yourself and finding out who you are. This is an expressive and creative project which will open the minds of young students that are ready to look at themselves and the world in different ways. Diorama is a model of something displayed in a box. The pupils in this group have been focusing mostly on metaphors as this will help them think more creatively. 

Many students don’t know much about diorama when they first look at the project however once they start to take part they understand more about it and why it is important. Tara from 7E said, “I believe that this project is really important in life as some people don’t know who they are or who they want to be but this project helps pupil to understand and to think outside the box. Diorama has made me understand things about myself and the things around me in a better way.”  

We have interviewed many students who have chosen this project and they’re glad they did. Jeba in 7B said, “Yes we have enjoyed this diorama project so far because we can all get along with each other.”  Meanwhile, others had different perspectives on the project, such as Anima in 7E who said, “This will make people more creative and it’s very interesting. It helps you explore your personality.” Sunzidah from Year 7 said, “We have chosen this project because it has something to do with art and we really enjoy art,” while Tasmiyah claimed, “It helps me develop my knowledge and creativity.”

We have also interviewed the teacher in charge of this project, Ms Pallet, who said, “It allows students to reflect on who they are. It always encourages feelings about the world and themselves.”

Diorama is really helping students to understand the big question for 2011 Mulberry Theme Week – “Who do we think we are?” and “Who am I?”
