Good afternoon, readers and guests of the “Family and Childhood” website. Today is another modeling lesson and we will sculpt a duckling. To create a little plasticine duckling, you don’t need much. You need to buy plasticine and set aside some time to work. The box with plasticine must have a plastic stack; if this tool is not there, you will have to use a toothpick and divide the blocks into parts by hand.
If in kindergarten or primary school a child was asked to sculpt some representative of a farm, then you may well choose to work on sculpting poultry or ducklings from plasticine. Modeling poultry assumes the most simple steps, so it will not cause difficulties even for the smallest children. This master class will help children and adults implement an interesting idea.
Master class on sculpting a duckling from plasticine
1. Prepare yellow and orange blocks of plasticine for work.
2. Roll two balls, one of which is half the size of the second.
3. Turn the larger piece into an oval cake, but not flat, but voluminous; stick the smaller one on top, smoothing the plasticine perfectly.
4. Attach an orange beak to the front of the muzzle and make a longitudinal stripe in a stack.
5. Attach blue eyes to the muzzle and frame them with eyebrows to make the look more expressive.
6. Roll out an oval piece, then sharpen one side to make a drop.
7. Place the drop sideways, stick a cake on the wider part and insert a match into its center.
8. Make several random cuts with a stack to show that the little duckling is fluffy.
9. Attach the head to the match.

Progress of the lesson.
Educator: children, today we will feed the poultry. Now you can guess which birds.
She walks in the rain
Loves to cut grass!
"Quack!" screams
It's all a joke
Well, of course it is...
Children: Duck!
Educator: Well done, guys, here's another riddle.
Amazing child!
Just got out of diapers
Can swim and dive
Like his own mother.
Children: Duckling!
Educator: Well done! So you guessed it. This is a duck and ducklings. They are not in the yard, they probably went to the lake. Let's go look for them.
(Children pass a strip with physical education equipment: a bridge; hummocks. The teacher and the children approach the table on which the lake is decorated. They surround it on all sides. One duck swims on the lake).
Educator: Look, guys, the duck is swimming alone, you can see the kids are hiding in the grass. The mother duck felt lonely and started calling them. “Quack-quack-quack!”, but the ducklings don’t respond. Mother duck asks you to help find her ducklings. Let's help her! How can we help her, guys?
Children (answer options): ... you can blind...
Educator: of course, you can make ducklings! But first, let's play with you a little.
The ducks came out into the meadow, (we walk like ducklings) -
Quack-Quack-Quack!
A cheerful beetle flew by -
Zhzhzhzhzh! (we wave our arms - wings).
Geese arch their necks -
Ga-Ga-Ga (circular rotation of the neck).
The feathers are straightened with the beak (the body turns left and right).
The wind swayed the branches (we sway with our arms raised up),
The ball also growled -
Rrrrr... (hands on the waist, bending forward, looking in front of you).
The reeds whispered in the water -
Shhhhhhhh...(raise your arms up and stretch),
And again there was silence -
Shhhhhhh... (sit down).
Educator: Well done! Now sit down at the tables, we must help the mother duck. Look, guys, what wonderful colored plasticine we have on our plates. Touch it, what is it like?..
Children: Soft...
Educator: Look, children, what parts does a duck consist of?
Children: Head, torso. The head is smaller, the body is larger.
Educator: What do you think, what is this?
Children: Beak, tail.
Educator: Well done! First you need to divide the plasticine into two parts. One piece of plasticine, which is larger, will be the body; a smaller piece is the head. To sculpt the body of a duck, we need to take a larger piece of plasticine and roll it into an oval with our palms. Then we also sculpt the head, only with a ball. Next, we connect these two parts, pressing them tightly against each other. But be very careful so that the shape does not break. Then we guys pinched the beak on the duckling’s head and pulled it back a little, and on the body, where the tail should be, we pulled it out. Look how I do it.
Our duckling is almost ready. Is he missing some eyes or something else?
Children: Wings!..
Educator: Look, you have buckwheat in your plate, make eyes out of it for the duckling. Carefully! Where the eyes should be, press the grain. If everything is clear, start the lesson.
Educator: Our duck in the pond is really looking forward to her ducklings!
(The children finished their work).
Educator: Now, guys, let’s go and put all the ducklings on the lake.
Our duck is one, but there are many ducklings! Let's count them guys! Well done, you did a great job today! Look how happy the mother duck is! And the ducklings are happy too, they have returned to their mother! Everyone has fun, and so do we! After all, we did a good deed. Is it true?
Children: Yes!!
Educator: So that our guests also have good mood, let's dance for them together with our duck and ducklings dance. Please, everyone stand in a circle around the lake, and I will put on duckling hats and masks for you. Now listen to the music and repeat all the movements after me.
(Music sounds. Children dance the dance of little ducklings).
Educator: What great fellows you are! Me and the duck thank you for the wonderful dance. And the duck also wants to thank you for the fact that you returned the babies to her! She passed on treats.
Print Thanks, great lesson +15
Do you and your child sing funny children's songs, for example, about two funny geese? If yes, then your baby probably knows that geese can be white and gray. You will need this knowledge, because in this modeling lesson we will learn how to sculpt a goose from plasticine. So, to create a craft, you can use only white plasticine, combining it with red or orange, or only a gray block or a mixture of both. Modeling a goose is easy work, which will be feasible even for small children, but under the guidance of adults.
Other lessons on the topic of pets:Step-by-step photo lesson:
1. According to the above list, prepare the bars and plate for work. Think through all the components of the bird. These are the head, body, tail and wings, and also if we're talking about about the goose poultry, you also need to add a long neck. We will sculpt all these details from a combination of white and gray plasticine. We make the beak and paws from red or orange.
Create two balls, their parameters should be proportional to the head and body of the goose. And also pull one piece into an oblong sausage-neck.
To avoid attaching the tail separately, just pull out a little of the white mass with your fingers, you should get a pointed tail. Connect all the parts together. You can disguise a flexible wire inside the neck, then the finished goose can actually bow.
Attach a wide red beak to the front of the muzzle.
Glue two black dots for eyes.
To sculpt the wings, draw out the gray pieces in semi-arcs and make them flat. The stack will allow you to show the feathers on the wings.
Attach the wings to the body.
To make flipper-like legs, make notches with the flat side of the stack.
Attach the legs to the body.
The plasticine goose is ready. Now is the time to once again sing the song about two cheerful geese with your child.
Training, education and development are the three pillars on which the pedagogical process is based. Any activity with children should have a threefold goal. When it comes to very young children preschool age, then classes with them are carried out in game form. One of these types is modeling. In the course of such work, a child can be taught to recognize colors, shapes and sizes of objects, develop his spatial imagination and finger dexterity, and instill in him determination and perseverance.
This article provides a master class on sculpting a duckling from plasticine. In the process of creating a miniature copy of poultry, teachers or parents can talk about their benefits for humans and foster a humane attitude towards animals. After the lesson, children will develop the skill of creating standard parts from plasticine, for example, cakes, balls and sausages, and they will learn to combine them into a single product.
How to make a duckling from plasticine
Consider a picture of a duck or a toy, if available. Choose colors. To sculpt this pet you will need yellow, a little orange and red shades. Decide on the details. The duck figurine should consist of a body, head, tail, wings, beak and legs.
Divide the yellow block into two equal parts. Mash one of them in your palms and form an oval part, pulling out a small tail. 
Knead the second half of the plasticine and roll it into a small ball. Attach the round piece as the head. 
Spend another 2 yellow portions on sculpting flat duck wings, their shape should resemble a drop. The stack will help make the wings fluffy. 
Attach the wings to the body, press firmly on the plasticine so that the parts are fastened together. 
Also treat the tip of the ponytail with the stack to make it fluffy. 
To decorate the front part, pinch off tiny drops from white and black plasticine and make eyes out of them. Make a beak from an orange piece, make a cut on it with the same stack. 
The last detail is the red paws. If you make them disproportionately large and attach them to the body, the duck will take on a funny cartoon look. 
The plasticine duckling is ready. After this detailed lesson The baby will be able to repeat the work on his own and make friends for his pet.

She walks in the rain
Loves to cut grass!

- Well done guys, here's another riddle.
Amazing child!
Just got out of diapers

Like his own mother (Duckling!)
Well done! So you guessed it. This is a duck and ducklings.
Guys, the ducklings were playing, swimming and lost their mother and they began to call their mother “Quack-quack-quack!”, but mother did not respond. The ducklings ask you to help find their mother duck. Let's help them! How can we help them, guys? (answer options): ... you can blind...
Of course you can make a duck! But first, let's play with you a little.
The ducks came out into the meadow, (we walk like ducklings) - Quack-Quack-Quack!
A cheerful beetle flew by - Zhzhzhzhzh! (we wave our arms - wings).
Geese arch their necks - Ga-Ga-Ga (circular rotation of the neck).
The feathers are straightened with the beak (the body turns left and right).
The wind swayed the branches (we sway with our arms raised up),
Sharik also growled - Rrrrr... (hands on the belt, bending forward, looking in front of us).
The reeds whispered in the water - Shhhhhhhh... (raise your hands up and stretch),
And again there was silence - Shhhhhhh... (sat down).
- Well done! Now sit down at the tables, we must help the ducklings. Look, guys, what wonderful colored dough is on our plates. Touch it, what is it like?.. (Soft, yellow...).
- Look, children, what parts does a duck consist of? (Head, torso. Head is smaller, torso is larger).
- What do you think, what is it? (Beak, tail).
Well done! First you need to divide the dough into two parts. One piece of dough, which is larger, will be the body; a smaller piece is the head. To sculpt the body of a duck, we need to take a larger piece of dough and roll it into an oval with our palms. Then we also sculpt the head, only with a ball. Next, we connect these two parts, pressing them tightly against each other. But be very careful so that the shape does not break. Then we guys, by pinching, make a beak on the duck’s head and pull it back a little, and on the body, where the tail should be, we pull it out. Look how I do it.
Our mother duck is almost ready. Is she missing some eyes or something else? (Wings!)
