As we continue to study the illustrations and artwork of Ezra Jack Keats, we are paying closer attention to some of the details in his books. Today we met in two small groups to talk about the differnt types of materials he might have used in his collages. Be sure to check out the work we did yesterday with fabric and yarn. Today, we sponge painted and stamped to recreate the illustrations in The Snowy Day. It even felt like a snowy day in our classroom as we skated around on paper plates while listening to a waltz during music.
