Kindergarten Spring Hatch-Lings!!
Kinder went on a Spring walk today and picked up sticks to make this nest. We used cotton balls shaken in a bag with powdered tempera for the chicks. They had so much fun and they ALL did a wonderful job!





Fifth Grade has just finished their Archimbaldo Self Expression Silhouettes. I have posted this project before here http://www.elementaryartfun.blogspot.com/search/label/Archimbaldo
This year we added the spray paint element. The kids could use a stencil or make one. I love the ones they designed themselves!









Cool post. I used to do a chalk or oil pastel stencil like your clouds, but haven't in years, and seeing yours makes me wonder why I put it on the shelf! They look great so far. Maybe I can incorporate it into something I already have planned.
ReplyDeleteYour "Arcimboldo" profiles remind me of something else I did years and years ago, that I called "Bionic Brains". I did them with my 7th graders out of heavy cardboard that we cut with a jigsaw, so they had two sides to decorate in different ways (realistic/imaginative; good side, bad side; etc). I like the stencil element on yours. Is it real spray paint? Do you have to take them outside to spray or what? How do you handle it?
I was thinking about this comment yesterday wondering what it would look like with oil pastels and had to try it! LOVE it!! I LOVE the bionic brains, but a jig saw??!!! This is why you blow my mind! I set up shop outside with the spray paint and the kids bring me their stencils and I spray it. I am sure if I had a smaller group,and all the stencils were taped down good, they could handle it themselves, its pretty quick and easy. Since they were sharing their stencils though, I didn't bother taping them, I just ended up with spray paint all over my hands!
DeleteI'm getting ready to start my Kinder rotation in a few weeks, so I'm lovin' those little nests!!!
ReplyDeletethe nests were really cute! I had 100% success, everyone was able to make the nest and glue the pieces together. They are learning about the seasons right now in class, so it was perfect. We have a real bird nest outside our building too which added to the fun!
DeleteVery nice and interesting post, thanks for sharing
