Making lines across the paper - a big x and a big t. then curved lines inside...
Painted paper cut outs and then stamped legs with Q TIPS i think...

TK Monsters

We read GO AWAY BIG GREEN MONSTER!  Symmetry!
Then put blobs of paint on our papers...folded in half and found our awesome monsters when we opened the paper!


TK Tigers

Teaching art with Directed Draw is my favorite.  Breaking up the image with shapes they can identify and easily understand works so well. With this project - they created a large X on the paper and closed the top to make it look like a triangle.  Then we added triangle ears and football shaped eyes...and a nose with a J and a backwards J. Amazing how breaking down a project can make it so doable for the kids!  When the teacher first saw this project she doubted me...and was so excited about the results!
