"Three Birds" Kindergarten

The kindergartners finished their sketches (see November 3rd post) and are working on their paintings. They start by sketching a cardinal, a goldfinch and blue jay with a pencil. Then they outline it, and add branches for the birds to perch on.


The students then move on to watercolor. They paint each bird with its primary color, and then paint the sky blue. They save the branches and leaves for last, since brown and green aren't primary colors. Some students who finished early even added nests with eggs.
