1st Grade Winter Trees

First grade students created these gorgeous trees in hopes of a little snow before our winter break (which unfortunately didn't happen).  The students first practiced drawing trees building branches on top of branches...no broccoli trees!!!  Once comfortable, the students then painted their trees and snow using white paint on blue paper.  Using light blue paint, the students added subtle shadows on the trees and ground.  I was so impressed with the first graders for their effort in creating more realistic looking trees!
