Kindergarteners Draw With Scissors

Kindergarteners explored the collage "Beasts of the Sea" by Henri Matisse and learned how to create a collage using paper, scissors, and glue sticks. They also looked at self-portraits of Andy Warhol and Vincent Van Gogh, then they created their own self portraits.  We talked about cutting and gluing techniques, such as drawing the shape before cutting it out, and controlling the amount of glue by gluing only the smaller cut piece of paper.

Here are some of the wonderful results! You can see all of the portraits hanging up on the 2nd floor boards outside the art room.
