https://padlet.com/jshowalter1/tiedyepumpkins 4th Grade; This lesson investigates pattern and lines through a form of printmaking. Students will be exploring artist Yayoi Kusama and her work "All the Eternal Love I Have for the Pumpkins". Students will then create their own 2D designed pumpkin, adding lines and pattern, with a permanent marker and creating a colorful tie-dye print on top of it using foil, water based markers, and a spray bottle of water. en-us 2018-10-26 18:23:10 UTC 2023-04-15 17:12:27 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Apple.png jshowalter1 https://padlet.com/jshowalter1/tiedyepumpkins/wish/297537806 Using a sheet of white 8.5" x 11" paper, trace the outline of a pumpkin with a pencil. ]]> 2018-10-26 18:30:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jshowalter1/tiedyepumpkins/wish/297537806 jshowalter1 https://padlet.com/jshowalter1/tiedyepumpkins/wish/297546331 With your pencil, add pattern and rhythm to your pumpkin through the use of lines.]]> 2018-10-26 18:48:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jshowalter1/tiedyepumpkins/wish/297546331 jshowalter1 https://padlet.com/jshowalter1/tiedyepumpkins/wish/297547279 Trace your pencil drawing with a black permanent marker. ]]> 2018-10-26 18:50:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jshowalter1/tiedyepumpkins/wish/297547279 jshowalter1 https://padlet.com/jshowalter1/tiedyepumpkins/wish/297547818 Grab a large sheet of foil that is bigger than the white sheet of paper. Using water based Crayola markers, color on the foil using a color pattern.
