2nd grade Student Work |
Pinterest recently led me over to a post on Kitchentableclassroom.com demonstrating how to do evergreen trees with markers and water. I was drawn to the originality and knew immediately I would switch up my next lesson on the Element, Space and incorporate the trees into the project. We began with a directed draw for the trees and discussed size and placement to demonstrate the illusion of Space. Students followed along on day one to draw the trees, a few lines to show hills and the horizon using sharpie markers. Day two concentrated on diagonal lines to denote the needles of the evergreens using water based markers. They also added a little blue along the hills and horizon to represent snow shadows. Those that had time painted with water in the areas of the watercolor markers. For day three, students personalized their compositions with a emphasis on overlap and size to further demonstrate understanding of space. I was thrilled with how creative my students became as they planned their compositions.
