Oh how Kindergarten loves to paint!! We did a very controlled collaborative painting the first week of school...but this is the first time they've gone at it in a full fledged lesson! We are about 5 or 6 weeks into the school year now....so they've learned a great deal. They also are very confident with our fish/sea theme we've been working on this 9 weeks. After a demo & explanation of painting expectations & procedures...they students got to work!
THE RESULTS...BEAUTIFUL!!!!
I use the wide bottom tumbler cups from Dollar Tree/Dollar General(have had them for years and years). I only fill them about 3 or 4 inches full of water(in case of spills.
We use the "Biggie" watercolor sets with 4 colors. Tempera cakes would work also. It is more getting them use to holding a brush, rinsing out the brush, ...etc.
I do not do step by step exactly...I do a demo and then let them do it. I don't want all the pictures to look exactly the same...but I do believe in guidance for my kinders!!!
This girls fish is super fun..and very different from the others.
LOVE IT!
It is amazing how so precise some of the kids are at such a young age!
Sharing is caring!! Also...I know...I need to get new paints!!(get the refills!!..cuts down on cost)
