Cutting out our Rousseau Tiger Heads

Rousseau Tigers

Totally stole this project idea from
Cassie Stephens and her amazing blog. This was a two-day project that turned out amazing! I looooove them.

2nd Grade Still-Life Studies

So I had considered using some of these artwork samples in my Gladis collection this year, but of course, I changed my mind after I had taken tons of pics. We wrote about still-life drawing in our idea books and did some before and after vase drawings...show me what you know...show me what you learned kinda thing.  I also put 3 objects on each table and had the kids draw from a still-life. 

Pop-up Flower Gardens with 2nd Grade

 These turned out awesome this year! My student teacher helped me teach part of this lesson...but her placement was up before she got to see the finished product. This is a 3-4 day project.




                                      

Day One: Drawing and painting the background...landscape review! 

Day Two- Read "Planting a Rainbow" and collage stems and leaves...start creating flowers. 

Constantly reminding kids of the order of the rainbow...I don't think I've said Roy G. Biv so many times in my life.
