Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf

Kindergarten Mixed Media

 


Before starting our trees, we read Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf by Lois Elhert. The kids looked for shapes and colors in the book and we all talked about the fall colors. Each student made 3 trees; red, orange, and yellow. At the end of the project we talked about all the different materials we used to complete the project. Crayons, paper, scissors, glue, tissue paper and water, oh my!

Sun and Rain

Yellow Day, Blue Day

 

Kindergarten's next project was attaching emotions to colors. We started out with blue and yellow. I described yellow as a happy color because the sunshine makes everyone happy. Blue was described as a sad color, because it makes us a little sad when it rains. We created a sun and an umbrella to show our colors, using watercolor and collage as our media. Love these projects!
