Fourth Grade students looked at a Power Point presentation of Birds of the Amazon Rainforest. They studied their shapes and colors and made drawings in their sketchbooks. They used permanent marker to draw the outlines of their birds. Next they used the oil pastels to outline the shapes with colors.
Then it was time to learn about how to set up their “painting studios”.
All of the procedures we use to set up the paint station, how to
care for and use the brush, blotting paper and test papers.
Finally, they used our new water color boxes – 16 colors – to fill the spaces with bright colors. The oil pastel outlines helped keep the water colors where they wanted them. The students gave their full attention to their work. Here are some pictures of their works in progress.
