Impressionist Bridges by Grade 2

Wow, thanks to the website Panther's Palette for the idea for this amazing project.  First we learned all about Claude Monet and impressionism  by watching a Google presentation.  We especially looked at paintings and photographs of his gardens, bridges, and waterlilies.  Next students used masking tape to create a bridge, and round "stampers" to stamp colored circles all over their paper. The final products came out looking very "impressionist"!
