Before

Beautiful photographs of Dutch landscapes and skaters on frozen water are the inspiration for this lesson. Show some of these pictures and discuss them. 

What should you do?

1. Take the light blue sheet and stick black glossy paper on it below the center; this is the ice.  
2. Cut out a circle from a white sheet and stick the remaining part of the sheet on the blue one. 
3. Make white streaks on the ice by sprinkling flour in glue stripes. 
4. Draw a Dutch landschape above the ice and color it. 
5. Draw and color some skaters on a separate sheet, cut them and paste on the ice.
