Pebble Painting: Ms. Trautner and Ms. Weikamp

This was the second lesson plan that was presented. The lesson started by the teachers reading us a picture book about shapes. We put pieces of paper into a shoe box, then poured paint inside with a rock. We shook the shoebox as much as we wanted. Then we took the pieces of paper out and cut them into geometric shapes. We used primary colors for three of them and then we were instructed to make a secondary color using two of the primary colors. I chose yellow, red and blue as my three primary colors, and I chose yellow and blue to create green on the circle shape.

Extension Activity: I would have the students find the length of the sides or the circumference of the circle, this would turn this art lesson into a math lesson also.
