"Earth Day" (4-22-12)

My Partner Alicia and I were assigned to create a board for "Earth Day". I was very excited to do this assignment since I love Art and so does Alicia. We both had a vision as to what we wanted the board to be about. We put our ideas together and came out with this Masterpiece. We title the bulletin board  " Our Promise For Earth Day" basically is about students promising a positive change for Mother Earth. For Example, on each flower the students wrote a sentence and decorated with their own promise, like" I promise to reuse my water bottle" and as an entire class we promise to Recycle,Reuse and Reduce which are the clouds. This board can be use from Kindergarten all the way to High School. The materials we use was different shades of green to create the 3D tree and grass, assorted colors construction papers for the flowers and white cardboard and cotton balls to create the clouds. Of coarse, the background blue sheet, boarder and cut out letters for the board title. This was great experience working with an awesome partner also it's a great idea to incorporate a lesson with art. I love the outcome!
