Color Mixing

Kindergartners have been learning all about color mixing.  We started two week ago by reading "Mix it Up! by Herve Tullet.  (My kids love this book.)  Then we mixd all our colors, And painted circles of each color.  Kids who were done early took markers or extra paint and were able to turn their circles into birds or other fun little creatures.
 This week we talked about tints, colors made from mixing white with a color.  Students were given a piece of black paper to paint on and then given a pallet with white, red, yellow and blue.  (On their black paper they created a frame of flowers.)  Working with small groups at a time kiddos then created a bouquet of fingerprint flowers for the center of their frame.  These will go home for mothers day.
