1st Grade artists learned about the primary colors. They traced their hands and painted the background yellow, one hand red and one hand blue. The result is a great keepsake for parents!

Kindergarten's Many Colored Days
Kindergarten artists read 'My Many Colored Days' by Dr. Seuss and discussed colors. They created an image similar to the one in the illustrations and used line design. Adding color made the pictures come to life!
1. Fold paper in half and in half again.
2. Open paper and trace lines in black crayon.
3. Trace a person shape in the center.
4. Draw circles in the background of one square, stripes in the second, zig-zag in the third, and triangles in the last square.
5. Add color using crayon.

3rd Grade Frogs
3rd grade artists read "Picasso the Green Tree Frog" paying close attention to the illustrations. We then learned to draw frogs and used wet-on-wet watercolor technique to make them look like the pictures in the book.
