I guess I was on a bird kick! We looked at photos of cardinals and practice drawing from an image. The kids then used oil crayons to blend colors and make an interesting sky. Great job, wouldn't you say?
I started teaching K-8 students in 2009. I have already learned so much and know I will continue to learn each and every day. I hope you find my blog entertaining, educational, and inspirational.

3rd grade
The 3rd grade learned a little bit about Charley Harper and made collage birds in the style of his artwork. These were fun and turned out pretty cute!

Birds on a Fence
The students and I talked about horizon lines, a farm-style fence, and fall-type birds. I showed them how to draw a fence with a ruler and then demonstrated how to draw birds (and supplied some "how to draw" pictures to help the students)and details to make the drawing complete. Then details were colored with crayons and colored pencils and the background and fence were painted with watercolor. WONDERFUL job 2nd grade! You did great!
