I try not to repeat lessons with much frequency from year to year as there is no need. There are a million and one ways to teach the same concepts and explore materials.
This pastel vase with painted flowers lesson is one that I will never tire of. This is the 2nd spring that we have created these vases and I believe they will be a 3rd grade spring staple. The kids love 'em, I love 'em and families love them as well. I wish I could take credit for designing this lesson but the honor goes to Linda Bradshaw who retired last year from HES.

We will finish these up next week and I will send them home for kids to give to someone special around Mother's Day.

We took a look at vases sitting on a table by Van Gogh to understand where to begin drawing so that the vase actually sits on the table.
