Snowy Landscapes

I taught this project to a group of adults in December.  That project really turned out great, so I decided to teach it to my K-6 classes.  I can’t believe how well they did!  Even my very youngest students (several 5 yr olds) did an amazing job.  This project included so much:  watercolor techniques (wet on wet, dry on wet, using salt for texture) , art vocabulary (foreground, middle ground, background, silhouette), color theory (what happens when you mix complimentary colors?), and even a little science (deciduous/evergreen trees).  I love it when a project provides that much learning and skill building and is also fun, and the results are amazing.
