In the Art Room - Easter

The Kinders worked on these adorable directed drawings of the Easter Bunny.  They started with a pre-drawn circle for the head, and two pre-drawn ovals for the paws and then followed directions for the rest.
     

The first graders drew and painted Easter Crosses.  I gave them rulers, not to measure, but to trace for the long part of the cross.  Then I taught them how to draw the fabric as if it was draped over the cross.
