some of 1/2B's beautiful bridge silhouettes Lesson Background: My class have been engaged in a Technology unit for the past few weeks, exploring bridge building principles and the design, make and appraise process. We have watched videos, looked at photos, had endless discussions and done many experiments to determine why bridges are built in different ways, how to make our own paper bridges strong and stable, and how bridge designs change depending on their purpose. My class have spent the past week developing PowerPoint presentations about different bridge types and their purposes, so I thought it would be nice to create some artworks showing some of the different bridge types they have been researching. I found this great lesson idea on the Art with Mr Hall blog- http://artwithmrhall.blogspot.com.au/2013/01/bridge-silhouettes.html, and have made just a few small changes to suit my Year 1/2 students and the resources we had available to us. Materials (per student): Written by Xander (Grade 2) and Angela (Grade 1) · 1 A4 piece of white art paper · Pencil and a rubber · 1 black permanent marker · Warm and cool watercolour paint · Water · A thin and thick paint brush · A 30cm ruler · Pictures of bridge silhouettes from Google Images Lesson Steps: Written by Kayla (Grade 2), Eve (Grade 2) and Agnes (Grade 2) 1. Position your paper in landscape. 2. Grab your pencil and draw a straight line across the paper in the middle or slightly above or below the middle. This will be your water line. 3. Look at bridge silhouettes on the Internet and choose a bridge shape you like. 4. Carefully copy the bridge shape you like onto your paper using lead pencil. Make sure you don’t just draw lines- draw rectangle shapes instead. 5. Outline and colour your bridge with a black permanent marker. 6. Choose a cool colour for your water background and paint it on. 7. Choose a warm colour for your sky background and paint it on. 8. When the water and sky are nearly dry, choose some warm colours then paint some flicks in the sky and choose some cool colours and paint some flicks in the water. 9. Go and put your pretty painting on the drying rack. 10. When it is completely dry, go over your bridge with the black marker to make it stand out and cover any paint flicks that got on the bridge when you did your sky flicks. 11. Glue the art work on to black backing paper. Grade 1/2 Student Artworks: By Angela (Grade 1) By Annabel (Grade 1)  By Austin (Grade 2) By Jeff (Grade 2) By Rohan (Grade 2) By Tahir (Grade 1) More 1/2B bridges By Anna (Grade 1) By Ella (Grade 2) By Kayla (Grade 2) By Eve (Grade 2) By Amelia (Grade 1) By Callum (Grade 1) By Nive (Grade 2) Well done, 1/2B! You have done a great job on these artworks. I also want to congratulate Xander, Angela, Agnes, Kayla and Eve, who wrote the lesson materials and steps for this blog post. I think you learned a lot about the importance of including detail in your procedures. You have done a super job! From Mrs Baker

Ohhhhhhh my goodness! This might be my favorite new project! You've probably seen this or a similar Banyan Tree project in Dynamic Art Projects for Children, or maybe another blog. But I'm going to post it anyway because it is just that fabulous! Banyan trees grow primarily in India, though you can find some in Florida as well. From its branches grow aerial roots, which stretch downward and plant themselves back into the ground. They're amazing to look at! source source My fifth graders worked with oil pastels on their Wayne Thiebaud-inspired cakes project and really loved them. I think I significantly facilitated the sale of oil pastels at the local arts and crafts stores with that project. This project upped the oil pastel ante, as kiddos had to use their previous experience with the medium and further their technique in the form of blending colors. To begin, I walked the students through the tree-drawing process. Despite giving each class essentially the same spiel, every tree was very different. I love that about art, don't you? After drawing, kiddos painted their tree trunks and branches with black tempera paint. All that jazz took at least one full 45-minute class; some kiddos had to finish painting at the start of the next class. As far as coloring goes, most of my fifth graders used up two classes' worth of time (90 minutes total) to color. Every section had to include two analogous or like colors blended together. Some students went the random route, while others chose a specific color scheme or order. For the bottoms of the artwork, more colors could be used. Some students 'planted' their tree in water, which allowed for a reflection. I highly recommend using the reflective format, as the results are totally stunning! (The photos do NOT do these projects any justice. The vibrancy of the colors will knock your socks off in person!) This sweet kiddo lacks a lot of fine motor skills... yet this project was her JAM! This one is nicer than my example... it's humbling to be outdone by an 11-year-old! I'll do this project again and again--the kids loved it, they learned a lot, and WOW, are these babies gorgeous! Also, two nights ago I watched "Life of Pi," and there's a Banyan tree in one scene! I'm 28 years old and that alone made me so excited that I accidentally woke up the dog... and my husband. Whoops.

Stationer’s Hall Art Deco wallpaper is a beautiful print that embodies the Art Deco style. Done in neutral colors, this wallpaper could fit seamlessly into any room. It has a fun and interesting pattern without being overwhelming. The best part? Fast, free shipping! Self adhesive wallpaper, also known as peel and stick wallpaper, is simple. It works like a big sticker - peel off the backside and attach it to the surface! Customers can install it without professional help. The convenience of pre pasted wallpaper cannot be overstated. Unlike traditional wallpaper or peel & stick, it has an adhesive backing, so no additional glue is required, meaning all you have to do is soak the wallpaper in water and apply it! Installation is easy and can be done without professional assistance, saving time and money. Traditional wallpaper means that it has to be installed using a special type of glue (not included), and the result is a longer lifespan. It can also be installed on textured surfaces . The glue can be purchased at any hardware store or online. Highest quality wallpaper in the industry! Our wallpapers can be changed out in months for a new look, or keep it up for years! Custom colors available for most designs. We offer THE MOST sizing options! You can purchase our wallpaper in 1 ft increments so there is less waste and therefore, less cost for you! All wallpaper has a 24" design repeat and are printed at a straight drop, from top to bottom. Item # W68    Easy install and removal without damaging your walls.    Free, fast shipping!     Made with high-quality materials. How much wallpaper do I need? To determine the height you will need, round the height of your wall up to the nearest available length, which is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 or 12ft. If you are wallpapering multiple walls in a room, use the height of the tallest wall to measure. All of our rolls are 24" wide. To calculate how many you will need, measure the full width of your wall in inches and divide by 24". Then round your answer up to the nearest full number, and that's how many rolls you will need. IMPORTANT NOTE‼️ We do not recommend applying our wallpapers over stain-resistant or washable painted walls. They will not stick to these surfaces. If you currently have these types of painted walls, we suggest painting them with a white, flat primer and allow at least 4 weeks for the paint to cure, otherwise the wallpaper may bubble.
