Snowman Compositions!

Hello there!
This is yet another lesson that I have never done before! Lots of experimenting going on, and learning from mistakes! I decided to try out teaching basic composition to first grade artists. It was a little tough at first, simplifying terminology. I had my first class create two different compositions of snowmen after discussing what two different compositions would look like (subject of your drawing is hopping around the page)! Much to my surprise, almost everyone understood, and even wanted a challenge! So the next class I bumped it up to three different compositions!
Some are unfinished here, but I am very impressed with the kids' enthusiasm and understanding! (It did help that we promptly had a snow day a few days later!)






Woohoo! Thank you for visiting!
