In Kindergarten art, we are exploring different ways to add paint to our pictures. On day one of this project, students trace 6 different size "dots" on their paper and practice drawing a different line design in each. Students learn how to paint with their paintbrushes and paint with 6 different colors. The following week we read the story, "The Dot", and connect with the idea that Vashti could make all different dots with lots of different colors. Student then stamp dots of a variety of sizes to their painting with found objects. We use sticks, cups, toilet paper rolls, wooden blocks and marker caps. Student loved being able to use different things to create art that we wouldn't normally use! These are one of my favorite Kinder projects! They are so fun and expressive, all with DOTS!
