Fall Trees, Fall Leaves

Fall Trees by Kindergarten

  For this project the girls learned about warm colors, and used a variety of paints. We discussed what I call "cotton ball" trees and how trees really consist of limbs, branches and a more random shape for the leaves. We went outside and observed the anatomy of a tree and the girls pointed out their findings. For this project the students used tempera cakes for the tree trunk, water color for the background and finger paints for the leaves.
