Group work World after the pandemic by children from Kindergarten No. 16 in Pruszków, May 2021.
Teacher’s recommendation: Draw the world after the virus era. What will it look like? Will it change or not? I’d love to see it, because so far we know what it will be like based on what you said and recorded. I want to know how do you imagine it. We will draw together on a common card, because the world is shared by everyone.
Reactions of children: They willingly started the task and asked: is the world round and what crayons should we use? Can we draw hearts? Can we really do what we want?
They drew in a shared space, although it was not easy for everyone to share the page. A land of houses: houses without people and animals was created. There were only the houses and elements of the landscape or architecture. Someone at the end of the work noticed that there are no people, no animals, no heaven. Then the sky, suns and rainbows were created. Colorful kindergartens, houses, swimming pools, two-story pools.
The next day, we drew individually on small formats.
