Students love to look at and discuss art! For this project first graders pointed out all sorts of interesting things in winter landscapes using the language of the arts. They learned that to create the illusion of space in your artwork, objects will appear to be getting smaller and smaller. They learned about foreground, middle ground and background. They also learned how overlapping creates the illusion of space. Students traced their circles into snowmen, added horizon lines and then used a combination of oil pastel and construction paper crayons to add fabulous details. Nothing says winter in Illinois more than snow, wind and snowmen!!

I was a graphic designer for many years, and then decided to make the leap into art education. I taught elementary art for 8 years. Archives
