Third Grade-Here Chick, Chick, Chick!
I'd love to claim this lesson as my own but I found it in School Arts Magazine. Its originator is Maryanna Rudecki. I loved teaching this lesson about texture in art and painting wet on wet creating secondary colors from the primary, mixing colors, magenta, cyan blue, and yellow, black and white. This lesson begins by reading The Painter Who Loved Chickens by: Olivier Dunrea. I had to find this book on the Internet. We created texture on our chickens by painting with hair twisties, dog toys, and those rubber balls with all the spikes sticking out. Oh what fun!
