Grade 3: Square 1 Art Monkeys and value

Third graders began their first project of the year for our art fundraiser. This year, third graders are doing a drawing of a silly monkey and then learning about shading and value.

Here is a picture of a monkey that is getting set to be colored in. Third graders are trying to create value using a colored pencil. Not as easy as it looks but they are starting to get the hang of it. By 5th grade I hope they are able to use value and shading like little Escher's!
