KinderArt® Lesson/Activity

PINE BRANCH PAINTING

Grade: K-2
Age: 6-8

Submitted by H. Williams, a teacher at Springville Elementary in Springview, New York.

Objectives:

Students will use different media, techniques and processes to communicate ideas, experiences and stories.

What you Need:

  • pine tree branches (small)
  • green paint
  • white construction paper
  • red ribbon and glitter

What You Do:

  1. Children will add green paint to a small pine tree branch.

  2. Then, they will press the branch onto a piece of white construction paper.

  3. Press again in another spot or re-paint the branch before pressing again. Usually, several pressings can be made onto one paper.

  4. Sprinkle some glitter sparingly onto branch painting.

  5. Tie a red ribbon into a small bow and glue onto the painting when dry.

  6. This is great fun for the children.
Note: Try experimenting with different color combinations to see what turns up!
