Warm and Cool Landscape
This 3rd grade project uses, pencil, oil pastels and black sharpies. Students review the color wheel and discuss warm/cool colors looking a famous works of art. What is a landscape? Element of perspective Using direct drawing they create a simple 3 hill/3 tree landscape. The tree should be the same style on each hill but get progressively smaller as seen further in the distance. Inspired by the work of Hunderwasser and folk/primitive works (provided in table hand outs and prints seen around the room) students sketch their landscape and work on building patterns. The sky should have one moon/sun element.
Students redraw their composition on sturdy paper and go over the pencil lines using sharpie markers. They must decide on warm or cool ground/tree and warm or cool sky/moon/sun.

Rainbow Robots
Kinders love color and liquid watercolors are so bright and cheerful.
On water friendly card stock students painted bands, lines for pockets of color.
Using pre-cut rectangles and triangles they created a robot body (head, body, 2 arms and 2 legs) and attached to dry background.
Details were added with additional pre-cut squares and rectangles in construction paper and special shiny scraps. Crayons and color pencil were used for drawing details and sequins were available for buttons, eyes and other robot elements.
