1st Grade Still Life


This is hands down one of my favorite projects that first graders do. Every student's work turns out wonderful, beautiful and unique! I wish I could hang each one in my house, they are so bright and cheery!


The first graders began by learning about the art element of space. They learned that space is the empitness around and between objects. We then spent a day drawing flowers in vases on our tables. We talked about how important it is to actually look at the flowers and draw what you see in front of you, not what you think the flowers look like.


After drawing and outlining our flowers we used water colors to paint them. Incredible!
