The Lily Pads and Apples are well into their Color Day Curriculum. Each week we've been learning about a different color and exploring painting on easels on Tuesdays and working with mixed media collage or sculpture materials on Thursdays. The students have been having fun discovering what happens when you add white or mix different amount of each color to make new shades. We've also added oil sticks, crayons, do stickers and chalk to our paintings. Some students have been exploring making faces or figures. We also listened (and moved our brushes) to songs each week relating to colors including "Yellow Submarine," (Beatles) "Blue Suede Shoes," (Elvis) "Purple Rain" and "Raspberry Beret" (Prince) It's exciting to see what happens each week when a new color is introduced!
