Harold and the Purple Crayon!!

Yesterday I read the story Harold and the Purple Crayon.  We used this story to discuss the different lines in pictures.  We looked for diagonal lines, straight lines, squiggly lines, zig zag lines and curvy lines.  The children practised drawing pictures and using different kinds of lines in their pictures. 




At the light table!!

 



Outside with sidewalk chalk!

At the writing table the children started with a line and they had to see what picture they could create!





Here 2 students created a clock and a chicken!!! They made several pictures and creations and made their own book!!



Some students were viewing the video Harold and the Purple Crayon and were drawing the things that Harold drew in the video.  The picture above is a picture of the apple tree.
