We're celebrating Chinese New Year in Kindergarten Art!
Kindergarten artists are learning about the upcoming Chinese New Year. Students compared and contrasted Chinese New Year to how we celebrate the New Year in our culture. This year is the year of the monkey. Most students also discovered that they born in the year of the Tiger...Roar! Click on the monkey image to learn more about the Chinese zodiac signs.
Kindergartners are spreading good fortune and luck with festive coin trees. They traced hands and then crumbled paper to add bark texture. Hands were then painted to create trunks of gold and fortune.
During week 2 students cut and glued their hand branches.
Printmaking techniques (stamping different round shapes) were then used to add coins of all sizes.
Have a prosperous and good year!
