Thursday Art Sept. 20

K-Art Unit 2: lessons 5 and 6 - On Tuesday we read the Color book and filled in a color wheel with primary and secondary colors. On Thursday we read the Color book and looked for the primary and secondary colors in art prints. Then they filled in a color chart with primary colors and added secondary colors which they mixed. Then they made a painting with the left over paint. We also reviewed warm and cool colors and looked for them in art prints. This unit has been review for the K-group but they always love too paint. I have been using a lot more prints than last year which I think they enjoy too or have grown to expect from me. Any way awesome week.
