Kindergarten Lions

     In keeping with the African American cultural unit, kinders made these adorable lion portraits in Art last week.  Starting off with the lion face, we colored in the features with neutral colored crayons.  Next, I put orange, yellow, & brown paint on their tables and showed them how to paint straight lines radiating from the lion's face to represent the mane.  Lastly, I put pieces of neutral colored yarn on the tables & let them glue pieces of yarn on top of the lion's mane.  Here are just a few examples of student work:
