Flurry of Fall Foliage
# Students recognize warm colors in fall foliage, observe line in tree trunks and branches, and study color in fall landscapes.
# Children read poetry and stories about nature, such as Robert Frost’s “The Road Not Taken.”
# Students use wet-on-wet watercolor techniques to depict a fall landscape, representing lines and colors found in nature. Supervision is essential to assure that children carefully blow India ink.
