Grades 1-2

Watercolor Basics

Grade 1-6

This unit covers the fundamental techniques for painting with watercolor. The lesson follow-up project will be dream paintings combining crayon and watercolor, based on the work of Marc Chagall. A few other potential projects are: ocean scenes, seasonal landscapes, and traditional Chinese painting.

Relief Printing

Grades 1-6

Printmaking is a great way to get students who might be a little nervous about doing things “right” or “wrong” to feel more comfortable with getting results that may be unexpected. It’s also just plain fun!
