First grade students read The Great Kapok Tree by Lynne Cherry in Library.  Students drew their own rain forest with many different kinds of leaves and trees.  Oil crayon was added for color with a green wash over top.  Our oil crayons remained bright because of the resist effect.  Artists drew some animals that may be found in the rain forest and colored them with vibrant colors.  Animals were cut out and mounted to the rain forest with cardboard pieces to give the illusion that the animals are popping right out!
