Pebble Painting


This is the completed bulletin board from the project a classmate and I co-taught. The project is for second graders. The students had to dip different sizes of rocks into paint and shake them inside of a box. There was a piece of paper in the box so that the rocks created a design. The students also had to cut their paintings into shapes, so math was reviewed. With this project, the primary colors were learned, along with how to make secondary colors by mixing the primary colors. Another cross curriculum project for pebble painting is a science lesson that explains how and why rocks are different sizes. The students would learn about erosion.
