First grade end of trimester

First graders finished painting their primary and mixed secondary colored fish, after finishing the painting, they outlined in sharpie, cut out seaweed and glued it on, these are three of the finished examples.

First grade learned about Mosaic tile art and made fall, warm colored trees.  They ripped brown paper for the tree and branches and glued them to look like a realistic tree.

The following week, students reviewed the warm colors and looked at the trees outside our art room window.  They continued in the mosaic style ripping the red, yellow, and orange paper into a leaf pile, then glueing the leaves onto the tree, filling the space with bright warm colored leaves.

 Two finished examples.
