Yesterday, the second graders put the finishing touches on their Eric Joyner inspired robots versus donuts pictures. Its so amazing to recognize small areas of shading and value in their coloring. The second graders were intrigued by each other's creative ideas and seem proud of their work.

On Tuesday, I introduced value to students, explaining that it is another element of art which shows a color's range from light to dark. Instead of painting these designs like Eric Joyner, students will use colored pencils, but by using shadows and highlights, they can make their drawings look realistic. Students practiced creating value with a pencil and crayon, then went back to work on their robots, creating a final copy from their original sketch.
