November projects

Hi all! Here are some projects up and around the hallways these days. 

Kandinsky trees using printmaking & overlapping. First grade project working on cutting gluing & tracing tree template.

Paul Klee 'castle & sun' third grade project using oil pastels, color schemes and watercolor resist.

Kindergarten gum ball machines looking at Wayne Theibauds ' three machines' - students practices cutting skills, placement & filling the area.

Sunrise fall trees- by grade 4. Students worked on tints & brush control. I saw a painting similar on Pinterest so I modified it for elementary.

City skylines but grade 4. This project was the follow up from mixing tints in the sunrise to making shades in a sunset. The kids really enjoyed the control to mix their own shades.

A little bonus activity for students who finished early! I found this how to draw page at ' art projects for kids' thanks! We also watched a short clip in the importance of Thanksgiving and took a virtual tour of the Mayflower. 

By grade 3
