Kindergartners learned about American painter and sculpture Jim Dine. Jim Dine is known for painting and sculpting hearts.
Here are a few samples of Jim Dine's work:
Students used square drawing paper, and folded their paper horizontally and then vertically, to create 4 boxes on their paper. A small piece of paper was then folded in half, and a pencil was used to draw half of a heart. The small hearts were then cut out, and used to trace in each box, on the larger drawing paper. Oil pastels were then used to outline the hearts and add shading. Students were encouraged to think about their color choices, and to choose colors that go well together, to overlap with their shading. Tempera cakes were then used to paint in the hearts and backgrounds.
Learning Targets:
1. I can create shading on one side of an object.
2. I can make color choices based on what I know about colors. (colors that go well together, colors that make each other stand out).
