planting a pattern

Farm Inspiration

 Chickens.... We handprinted a giant sheet of paper first with red/orange paint. Then I cut out shapes of chickens/roosters and the kids dot painted over the top of the paint and added feathers, feet and eyes

 Barn quilts: After looking at many different barn quilt patterns we discussed shape and color patterns.  I folded square paper in different patterns and had some kids try this themselves. Then we colored in the different shapes that we saw on the folds.

testing some farm equipment textures for a future project....
