Right now it is COLD here in Missouri.... we are discussing winter, hibernation, arctic animals, etc.
We had really slacked on art so far this year, I finally think I have it in my mind, a schedule that will work for art. On our day when we have no special activities in the evening, Wednesdays, we will try to focus more on art.
Today we did an arctic animal against the Northern Lights. I originally got it here. Jackson didn't want to do a polar bear, so he opted for a penguin. I just printed a penguin out for him, he did oil pastels for his ice and lights and we cut out some mountains. The girls, being older, are much more advanced. They drew their polar bear first on blue paper, colored it in with a white oil pastel... then cut him out. Colored their northern lights in on black paper and pasted the bear on. VOILA!
