Skyline/City Scapes Mixed Media : 1st Grade






Ms. Piper was finishing my lession I had started the previous week.  The first day students watched a Power Point on Skylines/Cityscapes.  They then drew a skyline and used tempera paint to create tints & shades.  The this week they used construction paper to create layers of city buildings ontop of the tempera paint skyline.  I really love the results.

  5. So how many kids do you have, or how many classes? How do you store stuff like these until the next class time so they can dry and add the construction paper buildings. It looks really fun, but I am trying to figure out how to do that with my numbers.
