Kindergarten students in Mr. W's class have been exploring watercolor media. I introduced the kids to basic watercolor techniques, such as 'waking up the colors', and keeping a puddle in your palette to help keep colors rich. I also taped their 140lbs. paper to the table to prevent the paper from buckling. The watercolors were also not just your ordinary watercolor sets, they were METALLIC colors. The kids loved the glittery affect of all the colors.
Kids get to conference with either me or Mrs. Marcus to verbally work out their choices in composition.
Kids discover that the water color changes as they wash off their colors in the containers.
Check out that watercolor palette.
