学期最后一天的壁画
我们创作了一幅大型花卉壁画，为本学年画上精彩句点！
为以隆重而热烈的方式结束本学年，学校组织了一系列特别工作坊。在音乐、游戏与体育活动之外，我们选择艺术作为永久装点校园的载体。这项活动不仅培养了我们的协作能力与团队精神，也深化了公民教育实践——大家共同改造并美化这一共享的校园空间。
所需材料：
- 使用 Procreate 应用程序在 iPad 上绘制的数字草图
- 用于在墙面上作画的蜡笔
- 丙烯墙面颜料
- 各种尺寸的画笔
- 塑料杯与容器
- 盛水水桶
- 用于清洁的抹布或纸巾
- 用于保护地面的报纸或大号黑色垃圾袋
项目启动之初，我们面临一个小小的意外挑战：原计划在户外开展的创作，因倾盆大雨被迫转至室内进行。但我们并未气馁！最终决定装饰学校地下车库那面宽大而灰暗的墙壁，为其注入生机与色彩。
施工前的车库
为最大限度优化整体规划，在正式动笔前，我使用 Procreate 应用程序在 iPad 上制作了数字效果图。借此，我能直观预览最终效果，并清晰划分各小组负责的色块区域。
含基本构思的数字效果图
为顺利推进创作并统筹大量学生参与，我提前准备了众多盛有丙烯颜料的纸杯，确保每位同学都拥有画笔、指定颜色及专属装饰区域。同时，将数字草图彩色打印后沿整面墙粘贴，为同学们提供清晰的形状与色彩参照。
我们将全体学生分为三批，每批30人，每批工作一小时。在拿起画笔前，各小组均参加了一场简短培训，内容包括：如何正确稀释丙烯颜料、如何在墙面均匀施色，尤其重要的是——如何在有限空间内安全、和谐地移动与协作，以保障数十名同学同步高效作业。
由蜡笔勾勒的绘画基准线早已就位——这些线条由我于前一日直接绘制于墙面。简短说明结束后，涂色工作即刻展开：同学们动作迅捷、操作精准、配合默契，各自专注完成所分配的大型花卉区块，并在每小时轮换时无缝衔接。
尽管参与者众多，整个活动始终洋溢着极大的欢乐与热情。除绘画外，每位同学都主动维护场地与工具，在轮值结束后自觉清洗画笔、整理工位，展现出高度的责任意识与公共空间素养。
仅用三小时集体协作，我们便完成了数平方米的墙面绘制。如今，车库墙面已告别灰暗沉闷，处处迸发蓬勃活力：任何在此停车的人，都将被明快奔放的造型所迎接——这满溢的欢欣，正是学期最后一天最真实的写照！
A mural for the last day of school
Our large floral mural to end the year with a flourish!
To wrap up the school year with a flourish, our school organized a series of special workshops. Amidst music, games, and sports, we chose art to leave a permanent mark on our institute. This activity allowed us to develop collaborative skills, teamwork abilities, and to work on civic education, transforming and enhancing a shared school space together.
Materials Needed:
- Digital sketch created on iPad using the Procreate app
- Wax crayons for drawing on the wall
- Acrylic wall paints
- Paintbrushes of various sizes
- Plastic cups and containers
- Buckets of water
- Rags or paper towels for cleaning up
- Newspapers or large black trash bags to protect the surfaces
At the very beginning, we had to face a small unexpected challenge: our project was originally planned for the outdoors, but the pouring rain forced us to move inside. We didn’t lose heart, though! We decided to decorate the large, gray walls of the school’s underground garage to fill them with life and color.
the garage before
To plan everything as effectively as possible, before starting to paint, I created a digital rendering on an iPad using the Procreate App. In this way, I could visualize the final result and clearly define the color areas to assign to the different groups.
The digital rendering with the basic idea
To carry out the work and organize such a large number of students, I prepared many paper cups with acrylic paint so that each boy and girl had a paintbrush, some color, and a designated area to decorate. Color photocopies of the digital sketch were taped along the entire preparatory drawing, providing a clear reference for shapes and colors.
We divided ourselves into three large shifts of 30 students for each hour of the workshop. Before picking up the paintbrushes, each group attended a brief training session on how to properly dilute acrylic paints, how to apply them to the wall surface, and, above all, how to move and collaborate within the space to work safely and harmoniously together with so many classmates.
The guidelines of the drawing, made with wax crayons, were already prepared, as I had drawn them directly on the wall the day before. Immediately after the brief instructions, the paint application began: the boys and girls proved to be fast, efficient, and precise in painting their assigned floral macro-areas, taking turns seamlessly at the turn of each hour.
Despite the large number of participants, the activity took place in an atmosphere of great joy and enthusiasm. In addition to painting, everyone took care of the space and tools, showing responsibility and awareness during the final cleanup of paintbrushes and workstations once their turn was over.
In just three hours of collective work, we managed to complete many square meters of wall surface. Now the garage walls are no longer gray and sad, but burst with energy from every corner: anyone who parks here will be welcomed by bright, exuberant shapes, full of the joy that is so typical of the last day of school!
