First we draw.... then we paint!


Per the art teacher's suggestion, we drew our pictures about not littering on the playground on the tiles before we went to art. Why you might ask? Because 35 minutes isn't long enough to paint masterpieces! This allowed us to jump right into painting when we arrived.



As you can see, drawing on tiles is so much fun!!



We then took our completed tiles to the art room. Students were given the primary colors and had to make the other colors - got a little art lesson in on what mixes with what to make different colors!

So who knew painting or rather tracing our pictures with paintbrushes was so hard! Students quickly found out their pencil drawn pictures weren't going to look the same when paint was applied. They all still did a really good job and were super excited to show off their work!

Here's a video of them in action!
