Monet Waterlilies
For
this project the 1st graders looked at the paintings of Claude
Monet. We looked at pictures from his garden in Giverny, France where he
painted many of his paintings. As a class we discussed all the different colors
and objects in his paintings including trees, water, flowers and lily pads. The
students then made their own Monet painting by experimenting with markers, watercolor
and oil pastels.
