Birds and Birch Trees. I am sure many of you have seen this art project on the web at Deep Space Sparkle.

Birds and Birch Trees

I really enjoyed this lesson because it offered a variety of techniques and materials. I first gave students a 12x18 piece of white drawing paper. Students folded the paper into 8 sections. Students drew different designs in each rectangle using crayons. Then students used water colors to paint the remainder of the rectangles. I offered students the option to trace the birds or create their own.

What it will teach This project will help master the crucial skill of watching paint dry… and thereby teach when to apply more paint and how much water to use! The project also offers the opportunity to consider ways of applying the paint, and the effect that layering paint has on the texture and colour of a finished piece. What you need I am always upset to see youthful enthusiasm thwarted by a lack of success due to the use of poor-quality art materials.

5 Art Appreciation Lessons for Summer Learning - Melissa & Doug Blog

When school is out for the summer, it becomes the perfect opportunity for children to continue learning within the walls of their own home! While your child may have had lessons on various topics during the school year, art is one subject that is sure to be enjoyed even during his summer vacation. So help your child tap into his creative side this summer with these 5 different art-inspired projects. The purpose of these summer learning projects is to not only help your child practice his artistic skills, but to also introduce him to basic principles of art and art history, as well as to help him familiarize himself with several art mediums.

¡Una gran fiesta! Merendar en la montaña,jugar hasta que la noche corone el cielo.No tener hora para levantarte,mojarte bajo la tormentay esperar que el primer rayo de solcomience con el agua una gran fiesta.Serán los invitados las ranas y los sapos,los caracoles, algunos insectos y muchas aves.Serán los invitados y en el campo harán conciertos y bailes.Poema de Isabel Barriel ¡Buen verano a todo el mundo! Saige's hot air balloon project. I've been beside myself all month wanting to post this blog but I have tried to be patient.

Saige's hot air balloon project

I'm so excited to finally share this with everyone. Recently our PTA president contacted me about a grant she had found on the American Girl Website. The subject had to be hot air balloons. I had recently pinned a work by David Kracov and knew instantly that this would be the inspiration for the project. I began by researching the artist and learned that Kracov is a native of Boston and a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design. So the project: I limited the participation to 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students. The balloons were colorful, beautiful, original, and individual. Idée de bricolage: Coeur en vitrail.
