My winter hat
We had so much fun doing this fun face drawing project. I was inspired by one of my favorite go to art project sites,
Art Projects for Kids : http://www.artprojectsforkids.org/2013/01/big-face-painting-tutorial.html
I made a few changes to connect with our winter/seasonal unit.
Student started with a pre-folded piece of long landscape paper. They drew a large U shape. Half way down from the fold they drew a small horizontal line (the start of the nose). Each facial element was drawn together using a red light/green light stopping and starting process.
Once the face was drawn the students could unfold their paper and add a very tall hat. The drawings were colored with crayon and color pencils and a pompom added the finishing touch.
