Slide show : Being, doing, belonging and becoming.

Arts and Crafts

Art and craft has always been a big part of my life as my as I come from a creative family. We have an artist (aunty), Dress maker (nana), Cake decorator ( grandma), and an interior designer (uncle).

Art and craft was a vital part of my fieldwork two placement at a school. Schools often incorporate art and crafts into their teaching methods so that the children pay more attention and learn better. Including art and craft into learning inspires creativity and also covers more learning styles.

In slides 3 - 8 the occupation of 'doing' is being portrayed. Doing -Taking part in purposeful activities. (Wilcock, 1998). This is shown in my slide by arts and crafts that people have made as a form of doing as an occupation.


In slides 9 - 12 the occupation of 'being' is portrayed. Being - Time taken to reflect and appreciate the meaning and value in what we do. (Wilcock, 1998). This is shown in my pictures by the human desire to 'be' through arts and crafts.


In slides 13 - 15 the occupation of 'becoming' is being portrayed. Becoming – Envisioning our future and what we wish to become. (Wilcock, 1998). This is shown by the human desire to make something of themselves through art and craft. 


In slides 16 - 21 the occupation of 'belonging' is being portaryed. Belonging –  The sense of being included through occupational performance and social interaction. The sense of inclusion and support. (Wilcock, 1998). This is portrayed in my pictures by a sense of community and unity.


Here it is! Enjoy! ☻☺
