Sky Sketchbook: Morning, Afternoon, Night
Pictures of the Sky · Create and Express
Ask: 'Did everyone draw the same colour sky for morning — or are there differences? Why might that be?' Draw out that personal observation times and weather vary; there is no single wrong answer. If children mention the Sun's colour, gently prompt: 'Have you ever seen the Sun look orange or red — when does that happen?' — this surfaces awareness of sunrise and sunset hues without telling.
0-7The teacher opens with a quick whole-class oral warm-up: 'Close your eyes and picture the sky right now — what colour is it? What would it look like at midnight?' Children share words aloud, no writing yet, just gathering mental images.
7-15Students open Textbook p. 152 and look at the three blank panels. The teacher names each panel — morning, afternoon, night — and asks children to whisper what they expect to see in each before drawing anything.
15-32Children draw their three sky pictures independently: morning (colour, Sun, perhaps birds or a faint Moon), afternoon (brightest blue or white haze, Sun high), night (dark sky, Moon in one of its shapes, stars). They add small labels or colour notes beside each panel.
32-40A gallery pause: children hold up or pass their books to a neighbour. The teacher invites two or three volunteers to name one detail in their drawing that they are most sure of, and one they are less sure about — seeding honest observation before the next round of sky-watching.
Competency (C-6.2). Presents observations and findings through different creative modes (drawing, diagram, poem, play, skit, oral and written expression)
Learning outcome. Students can represent observed features of a natural phenomenon at different times of day through labelled drawings.
In the three boxes below, draw what the sky looks like in the morning, in the afternoon, and at night. In each box, write two things you notice — about the colour, the Sun or Moon, or any stars. Label each box with the time of day.
