The 3rd Grade class viewed various works of art in which artists depict the weather. Students noticed the use of value to change colors in the sky and that some artists could show a sunny day without drawing the sun. Some of the examples we viewed were from the book, How Artists See Weather by Colleen Carrol.
Once students finished their paintings, they wrote about their artwork. Some choose to write about the process of the work, while others wrote about the image they created. I was happy to see how much most of them enjoyed writing about their work.
