Van Gogh Sunflowers






Students in PreKinder and Kinder created these artworks after learning about Vincent Van Gogh. We began by painting in the background with a variety of warm colors. I taught the students about color mixing so we got to see first hand how yellow and red can make orange. During the next class, we read Camille and the Sunflowers and talked about Vincent Van Gogh. Students then used brown and green construction paper to create the flowers and stems. Students then used yellow triangles to finish off the sunflowers. Van Gogh projects are always loved by students because he was so interesting and his colors were so alive and vibrant!
