Our Starry Night

Because of the Halloween party, there will be no Masterpiece Monday today.  Our preK students have been looking at the work of Vincent Van Gogh.  We have learned that 'The Starry Night'  is one of his most famous paintings.  We learned the word 'famous' means that most people recognize the painting and then we created our version. 

First we painted the canvas blue.  Mrs. U glued lots of swirls and curly Q's on our canvas.  The children had three shade of blue.  We are learning that big brushes are for big spaces and little brushes are used for small spaces.  What brush did we use for the blues?

During center time, we added stars to the night sky.

 On Masterpiece Monday, we glued on buildings.
