Sprouting Spring Trees

Rejhan's Tree

Maya's Tree

Grace's Tree

Esteban's Tree

Cindy's Tree

Olivia's Tree

 

The first and second graders will be exhibiting some beautiful tree paintings at a local restaurant in May.  They will show their fall, winter and spring trees, and they have written about the lines, colors and techniques used in their work.  For their spring trees, the students used curling lines and light colors to represent new growth.  They added yellow paint to the blue sky to make a light green color for the spring leaves.  They added flowers to the branches.  Visit Wishbone Restaurant in May to see more of their work!
