Paul Klee 3rd grade art lesson
My 3rd graders had so much fun with this assignment. Students are learning about ocean life in their classrooms, so this was a perfect lesson to accompany their unit. We viewed the many works of Paul Klee, with emphasis on his paintings with squares of color. Students divided their paper in half with the top being the sky and land and the ocean at the bottom.
After they drew their ocean scene students traced over it with a black marker. Students were to use warm-colored bleeding tissue paper squares for the top of their drawings and cool colors for the ocean part. They wetted the top part with water, laid tissue paper squares on top then painted water on it again.
After they were dry I helped shake the squares off into the trash can. They loved this lesson!
