Second Grade Theibaud Desserts






Second grade students viewed and discussed a collection of paintings that showed different feelings or emotions.  We then looked at a collection of Wayne Theibaud's work and their eyes lit up and smiles jumped on their faces! We talked about why his paintings made us feel so excited and joyful....mostly because they are yummy treats! They could decide if they wanted to make cupcakes or ice cream cones in the style of Theibaud. I do use a stencil for the bottom cone of the ice cream and the bottom part of the cupcake. It helps the students make them the same size and in the correct spaces. They draw the rest themselves! We used oil pastels and tempera cakes to complete these yummy designs.
