I came across this lesson on Pinterest-I know, you are shocked! So the original post was from artsonia.com, and there was no additional information with the picture. I decided to use 2nd grade for this project and the results were great. We did a review of lines before the lesson and talked about the bird being a silhouette. They used a template on black construction paper, a quick cut and glue onto white paper. Then used markers to draw lines, which we wet with a brush, making the lines blur and bleed a little. This lesson was a big hit and they enjoyed having about 5-10 minutes getting to go to free draw area to read a book or draw on a dry erase board after they cleaned their tables off. Here are the pictures of the work.
I've seen this on pinterest also and ear marked it for the future. it's a lovely project - visually effective, easy to prep and little clean up - perfect to have on hand for the other half of those lessons that only need 15 minutes to finish off!
ReplyDeleteI agree! I thought the lesson was pretty and I had the bird template waiting for a good project.
ReplyDeleteI love the variety of lines! Nicely done :).
