Third grade "Expressionism" Self Portraits and Kindergarten Diggers and Dump Trucks

The third graders really enjoyed discovering the different colors they could mix with the primary colors.  After we finished painting the self portraits, the students participated in a "positive feedback" critique.

The kindergarten students used found objects to create shapes for dump trucks, excavators and other construction vehicles:

Color Wheel Fish and Geometric Shape Robots

Second grade students learned about the color wheel and mixed secondary colors with red, yellow, and blue.  After the fish were painted, they used blue and white to create a tint of blue for the water.  The last step will be to use black markers to create patterns on each fish.

The first grade students recently finished discussing and identifying geometric shapes.  After dancing to the robot song, students created a geometric shape robot with scraps of paper.  The robots were finished with markers.
