The Second graders looked at Fall
Leaves in the Art Studio. They created leaf impressions by rubbing crayon on
paper with the leaves underneath. Then they painted with watercolor and
discovered the crayon wax resisting the paint. Finally, they observed a leaf,
drew it with craypas and glued it onto their composition.
In
the Art Room, the Kindergartners were introduced to the medium of watercolor
paints and were encouraged to experiment with various techniques and color
mixing. Inspired by the book, “The Big Mistake,” they learned there are no such
things as mistakes in art as each result is unique and beautiful.
The
fifth graders observed and sketched trees outside at the end of Fall. From
those observations, they drew these trees using marker. The drawings were
painted with watercolor and salt was added for a cold, winter-like effect.
