Grade 1 looked at a book about Georgia OKeeffe and learned that she loved to draw and paint pictures in nature. We went for a visit to the Peace Garden to draw the plants and trees, and listen to the birds sing :)
We learned to air draw. It helps us to observe an object better and get to know it's shape.
When we returned to the classroom, everyone got to choose the medium they wanted to finish their picture in. Some of the little artists chose chalk pastels, some chose paint and some used pencils or markers.
After class, we had a visit from Mrs Pencil! She asked us what we learned and we showed our drawings to her!
