This was a fun lesson for 2nd grade the day before we left for winter break. Students used oil pastel to draw a string of lights. After the lights were drawn and colored in I showed them how to use chalk pastel to create the radiating glow of the lights. We talked about radial design and balance to help with the concept of the light going out in a radial direction. This was a very fun one-day project and they were so impressed with their ability to create that lovely glow! If students didn't want to draw a string of lights we talked about other things that "glow" they could draw while using the same technique!
These are so beautiful!
