Spooky 1st Grade, Collage's & Art Parties
1st grade is stepping up the difficulty with some Haunted Houses - they were loving the details! We sketched together step-by step and then I let them add their own elements. The second day we colored small parts of our artwork with crayons, and painted the rest. They are so cute! 2nd-5th grade worked on collage skill builder exercise 3 weeks ago so I could open the collage art center for everyone. This exposed them to a variety of ways to collage and hopefully got their gear
