Mixed Media Heart Art Project for Valentine's Day


First Grade Mixed Media HEARTS!  The project turned out pretty cool, but I think it was too big for first graders.  I gave them hearts to trace and they should have been smaller.  A 2" x 2" heart is big enough, for sure.

Directions:

The kids traced a big heartπŸ’™ (prolly 4"x 4").  If you use large heartsπŸ’œπŸ’›πŸ’š, I would suggest them drawing and coloring only 3.  Unlimited heartsπŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™ was a lovely, hot mess.  As I said, it is best to use small heartsπŸ’œπŸ’œπŸ’œ.

Once they traced the heartsπŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›, they colored with oil pastel.

Then, they painted the background with tempera.

The last thing they did was drizzle paint on their heartsπŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—.

LπŸ‘€K!









These are hearts of all colors.
