Cartoon Marathon Doodling @ Peiying Primary
















This is a one hour hall seminar that aims to introduce the concept of marathon to P1 and P2 students at Peiying Primary School, but turns out that it also became a contingency program for P3 and P4 students due to rain (they are suppose to run a marathon in school). We are required to teach students how to draw running postures and we came out with the idea of simulating a real marathon race cum a colouring contest for all. They are shown video clips of marathon and an animated route map which they are to imagine their Avatar (they draw a cartoon animal to represent themselves) competing in the race. There are different stages where they need to fulfil a certain activity before they can proceed to the next stage. Of course all activity are about drawing and with some running on the spot to get a feel of the race. At the end of the prize giving ceremony, they even have to do a 'cool down' exercise as a closure for the race. One funny thought, if I can create myself a real life Avatar, I might just skip through my entire RT training in camp:P
