It's almost the end of the school year...and we could use some humor in the halls!
I found this hilarious project on Pinterest and you can check it out on this Blog.
We started by checking out Peru on Google Earth. We learned about their flag, Machu Picchu, the Andes, and llamas!
We started by creating the background using oil pastels and watercolors. We looked at different patterns and colors that they use in the traditional textiles.
Next we watched a few clips about Llamas and looked at the different features (colors, teeth, hair, necks, etc.)
On a separate sheet of paper we drew our fun llamas in pencil and then added color with chalk and erasers. Chalk was blended to add shades and shadows. We added texture lines and used the erasers to add our highlights.
Overall, I think this project was a huge hit at school! The kids and staff have been getting a kick out of these in the hallway when they walk past our goofy llamas. It was perfect for this time of year.
