The aim of this final year project was to teach felting to children in an afternoon club. The point of departure was the emotional response of children. In teaching the felting the Experiential Learning Model was used. The author wanted to give the children the opportunity for integrated learning and inspire them through hand working. The aim was also to plan clubs and carry them through. The purpose of this final year project was to improve the teachers’ professional skills at the children’s afternoon club. The location of the club was the Haapaniemes school. The preliminary club plan was made together with Arja Airaksinen, who takes responsibility of the Haapaniemes schools club activities. The author of this final year project took the main responsibility of club activity planning and carryied these activities through. While planning the club timetable using David Kolb’s Experiential Learning Model, the aim of the children’s afternoon club and world of the7 to 8 year-old children had to be considered. This last concept is examined in the theory section of the final project. Clubs were carried through three Mondays in two-hour periods. There were eleven children taking part in these clubs. At the first meeting the children grouped the wool and thought about the kind of feelings the wool aroused in them. Then the children concentrated on thinking about what kind of an animal they thought wool might be. The animal was made and colored on paper. From this paper the animal was copied onto the model paper. In the second club meeting the animal was cut from the felt and fitted over background wool. Next the children started felting, which was continued into the last meeting. In the light of planning theory, the club plan was successful and suitable for children. However, it was felt that some other time of the day might be considered more beneficial for holding the class in order to satisfy the needs of the child. After the school day these small children were already tired and learning a new challenging technique occasionally appeared to be a little too difficult. However, the products of the club were successful and the children were happy with the outcome. In addition, the author found David Kolb’s Experiential Learning Model to be a suitable template for teaching felting and leading children. The author believes she will use this model in her future teaching and leading activities.
