Day 1: “Tiny T-Rex”
Have you ever needed a hug? Tiny’s best friend, Pointy, does—but there’s a problem! In this project, students will create a vibrant landscape background on a flat canvas using acrylic paint, learning the technique of blending to create soft, fluffy clouds. Following step-by-step guidance, they will freehand draw Tiny’s mouth and eyes to bring his expression to life. For Tiny’s body, students will blend blue and green watercolor paint, creating a smooth and dynamic color effect. Additional details will be crafted from cutout paper before Tiny is mounted onto the background, completing this heartwarming scene.
Day 2: “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie”
If you give a mouse a cookie, it will lead to a whole lot of creativity! Students will begin by crafting a colorful background on a flat canvas using layers of tissue paper and Mod Podge for a textured effect. The fun continues as they create a cookie! They will shape crumpled brown tissue paper into a round cookie form, securing it onto a mat board circle with Mod Podge, then sealing the top for durability. For the mouse, students will freehand draw its face onto a template using Sharpie, adding details to its overalls with a blue Sharpie. Using watercolor crayons, they will bring their mouse to life with soft blended colors, while oil pastels add depth to the nose and ears. Finally, they will assemble the mouse and cookie onto their background, adding the finishing touch—chocolate chips—using acrylic paint.
