4th grade- Tints and Shade Trees

Day 1: We talked about tints and shades and students chose their color paint to use (red, pink, green, blue, purple) We started with white in the middle of our paper and added blue around it to make a tint. Then we painted the plain hue. Last we painted the edges with a shade.

Day 2: We discussed positive and negative space. Students added tree silhouettes to their painting by starting with pencil and then painting over using black paint.
