Mingyi Elementary School, Hualien County—The Beauty of Horticulture

I. A Sense of Weight Comes from "Breathing Artwork"—Static Fern Boards. This course combines plant ecology knowledge with painting techniques, guiding students to start by recognizing the dimorphic leaf characteristics of staghorn ferns, and through woodblock painting and board-laying practice, transform an ordinary wooden board into wall art that combines life and beauty.

2. Collect fallen leaves and flowers from the campus and create prints using acrylic paint on canvas. Transform discarded leaves into works of art, combining them with flower sketching from visual arts courses for further creation.

Third, use the strips of fabric cut from the fabric factory to make eco-friendly flower pot holders, showcasing your creative ideas for everyday life.

Fourth, we once again invited horticultural therapist Ms. Li Huimei to conduct a joint workshop for teachers and students to enhance their abilities. The workshop included reviewing the importance of deep breathing, emphasizing the beauty of life through the companionship of plants, and activities such as dyeing small square cloths with turmeric, preparing curry spices, and making edible flower salads.

5. Use a 3D pen to design your own potted plant decorations.
