1st grade projects

1st grade learned how to draw an interesting perspective of themselves. They also added snow globes in their mitted hands. Great job! SO CUTE! These were painted with my new liquid watercolors (which I love!)


I read an old book I found called, "Walpole." Then I showed the kiddos how to draw a big, fat, blubbery walrus. They had so much fun! Then we talked about background, ice bergs, and how to mix paint colors using a double loaded paint brush! SO ADORABLE!

Too cute not to share....

Kindergarten read "Aliens Love Underpants" (SUPER cute book). We made aliens and unders to put on the alien. SUCH a cute project. The other photo below is 1st grade salmon inspired by the book "Wow! America!" I hope you enjoy them!

1st grade pop-art





I showed the kids Andy Warhol art and how he used bold colors and repeated images. The kiddos learned how to trace thier own drawings to make copies. Then, each image was colored with a color group from the color wheel (primary, secondary, contrasting, and analogous colors). GREAT JOB!! I love the one that has 16 faces instead of 4. This little guy loves to be different and even made awesome backgrounds!
