After talking about The artist Henri Matisse and collage we looked at Matisse's still life paintings. We used PATTERNS and OVERLAPPING concepts. 
1st grade also learned about FORM and TEXTURE when creating clay necklaces! Students stepped on....yep, you read that right....stepped on the clay to get the texture from the bottom of their shoe! We painted them with tempera paint. I applied midge podge to make them shiny. We added a cord and beads to complete it!
We are currently learning about the work of folk artist Grandma Moses!
2nd Grade
We learned about VALUE and FORM when drawing pumpkins using oil pastels. 
Next, we read the book Where the Wild Things are. We discussed authors and illustrators and looked specifically at the monsters in the book. Students drew their own monsters using PATTERNS within the work. 
We are currently working on a printmaking project!
