Open House Art

Here's a fun one...
I have my 4th graders draw a picture of their own house on white construction paper. They are encouraged to add lots of details - tramp in the back yard, trees, bushes, garden, flowers, etc. Take| a picture of each student. I use a digital camera. Be sure the front door of their house is drawn big enough to put a picture of their face behind it. They then go over their drawings with a black crayon. We paint the picture with our watercolors. I cut the door open on 3 sides with an exacto knife and tape their picture behind it. I close the door. Their drawings are put on their | |
desks over their nametags for Open House. Parents need to "find" their own house in order to find their child's desk. Parents love this and many say it's a great keepsake! I've even heard of people framing the drawings! Let me know if you have any other questions.
