Castles and Costumes, ages 7-10

We looked at books and talked about the dress, occupations and daily life in medieval times. Then the students traced each other on brown kraft paper (contractor paper) and painted themselves in their costume of choice. A fun project for the end of the year.

Day and Night Lighthouses, ages 10-13

This has to be another of my favorite projects. The students drew lighthouses and then drew dividing lines to show the difference of night and day colors in their painting. They put a lot of thought in to the colors that they used!

Snowy Night Trees, ages 8-10

It got colder outside and we even had some snow dusting the ground the other day. This project just kind of fit the day.  Tempera on 11x17inch card stock.
