Create | 1. Generate and conceptualize artistic ideas and work. | A. Play & Ideation | Engage collaboratively in exploration and imaginative play with materials |
B. Investigation | Use observation and investigation in preparation for making a work of art. |
This week we are experimenting with drawing materials.
We will show what we know using pencils, crayons and markers.
This practice will prepare us for our work in the drawing studio!
With a pencil...
You can create light and dark values.
Value is the lightness or darkness of a color.
You can create light and dark values by changing how hard you press on your pencil.
Blending and Layering:
Making new colors in the drawing Studio
You can layer crayon by coloring one color over another lightly.

Video for 3rd Grade
Can you see where the colors overlap in layers to create new colors?
Why do you think it is important to color lightly when layering?
Create your own drawing using the skills and tools we just learned about.
Ask yourself these questions:
1. How did you use your pencil? Did you press light or hard?
2. Did you layer crayons? Where? If you didn't, add one color on top of another to create layers.
3. Did you use the tip or the side of the markers?
Congratulations! You are now ready to use the drawing studio!

After you have finished this exercise, create your own drawing on another piece of paper using the skills and tools we just learned about.
Ask yourself these questions:
1. How did you use your pencil? Did you press light or hard?
2. Did you layer crayons? Where? If you didn't, add one color on top of another to create layers.
