Lines, Lines, Lines!

Second Grade

Students worked on drawing lions, adding different kinds of lines , coloring them in with layers and watercolored the manes.
Terrific work!!









Kindergarten

Kindergarten started off the year learning how to use their watercolors. They painted a picture based on the book The Dot.

After watercoloring, we worked on drawing several different kinds of lines. They did great and it was so fun to see the concentrations on their faces as they worked to make the lines.

Finally, they learned about how to glue artworks on and to sign their name on the front like real artists do!










First Grade

First graders learned about lines through making exploding silhouettes. They learned that silhouettes don't have details in them, and are the outside shape only. They worked hard on drawing and tracing over their lines with sharpies. 

Finally they used chalk pastels to help the lines explode with color out of the silhouette they made.
