4.3.3 STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE OF MATERIAL
Material can be organized and stored in a simple and easy way without too much
funds and efforts. Teacher can get help of children in maintenance of material.
He/she she can make children in charge and change in charges at regular intervals.
Children do have a sense of responsibility. They are caring and sensitive.
Trays or old baskets or shoe boxes are good containers to keep different objects.
Teacher can store various kinds of materials in a large box or container and call
it a “magic box”. New material can be added to the box from time to time, so
children are curious about “what will come out of the box today”.
The maintenance of the materials of art is also very important. For this purpose
a teacher can display the material in and outside class, such as on display board,
walls, corridors, pillars etc. this way you can enhance the appreciation of art in
children and get the benefit of peer evaluation also. Creating a children corner or
class museum is another way out to maintain the produced objects.
