South African art - Ndebele huts

This resource introduces children to the colourful world of Ndebele art found in South Africa.

Children can view the video or presentation and then, inspired by what they have seen create their own model Ndebele hut from paper.

This activity enables children to consider art from a different culture, allows them to explore the use of pattern and colour along with providing an opportunity for model making.

For this activity children will need something to add colour with (crayons, pens, pastels and pencils are all good) scissors and glue or tape.

This resource includes:

Presentation (pdf format)
Presentation (video format)
Printable template and instructions

Ideal to for children at KS1 and KS2.
