The first graders have been busy little bees working on their falling leaves art project. First, the students used crayon to draw a trunk of a tree with branches. After the trunk was complete, students used red, green and yellow paint and Q-tips to show the changing colors of leaves. Students enjoyed mixing red and yellow to make orange and further, adding green to the mix to make brown.
Students also created beautiful leaves and footballs to put on our classroom door. They got to practice cutting, gluing (with squirt glue...oh boy!) and fine motor skills during this craft.
